About the Book

Fifty Years ago, on May 6, 1965, a devastating tornado ripped through several Twin Cities suburbs in Minnesota. Members of the Halverson family were victims of this tragic event and dealing with this adversity was not optional for them. The story of their response to this disaster and the resilience displayed is captured in a series of lectures presented by Professor Robert Johnson of The Adversity Institute. The resurgence of a militant atheist organization publicly professing non-violence, but secretly plotting to initiate a Holy War among the various religions of the world adds to the unfolding drama in this story of hope and love overcoming hate and despair.
About the Author: Gregory Charles Reynolds has been on a spiritual quest for most of his life. As a student at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota, he studied religion, philosophy, and art. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hamline in 1971 and has a Master's Degree in Business Administration from the University of Minnesota. After a rewarding 32-year career working in the Finance and Education and Training organizations within 3M Company, he retired in 2007. The author is no stranger to adversity and the struggle we each face to not only survive, but attempt to thrive under adverse conditions and circumstances. Recovering from a heart attack in 2008, he found renewed strength, support and belief in the power of an awesome God. He could not have done this alone, and is extremely grateful to family members and friends who guided him through a difficult time. Having witnessed the effects of illnesses and diseases like cancer on close friends and family members, he is constantly reminded that adversity impacts not only the patient or victim, but also those who care about the health and wellbeing of others. Believing that adversity in all our lives is not optional, the author has continued his quest to find meaning and purpose in life and recently formed The Adversity Institute, LLC. The company exists to help individuals connect with the resources they need to address the various problems and challenges they are facing in their everyday lives. The author currently lives in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area of St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota with his wife Debbie, and their dog Jasmine.
