About the Book

HOW FAR COULD YOU WALK BAREFOOTED? The author of Juma's Journey invites you to follow barefooted Juma on his 950-mile walk from south Tanzania's Mbeya to Arusha in the north. Hours before his mother dies, Juma promises her that he will seek out the traveling mzungu missionary and get the white man to tell him about Jesus. As it turns out, the mzungu has left Mbeya and is on his way to Arusha, so Juma must follow him if he is to keep his promise to his dead mother. On his dangerous journey, Juma is confronted by many physical and spiritual tests. You will fear for his life when he is stalked by leopards and shot at by poachers. You will worry about him when he is held hostage by robbers and when he is kidnapped by slavers. You will wonder if he is going to be chewed to pieces by a pack of bloodhounds tracking him through the forest, and you will hope someone rescues him when he lies sick and unconscious in a roadside ditch. Will he make it to Arusha? Read this book and find out!
About the Author: After spending 23 years working in the electronics industry (16 years with Texas Instruments), Edwin Scroggins decided to change careers. To prepare himself to enter the field of Christian Education, Edwin earned a Bachelor's degree in Biblical Education and a Master's degree in Adult and Continuing Education, both obtained while working full time to support his family. In 1978, Edwin joined the Dallas Bible College as a member of its faculty. He served there as Assistant to the President (writing proposals to gain grants from various foundations), as a classroom teacher (of writing and church publicity), and as an administrator and developer of Bible courses and study guides for the college's External Studies Department. Edwin's literary publications include "Prophecy for Today," published by Dallas Bible College in 1971, and "Bible Prophecy in a Nutshell," published by BookSurge in 2007. His two-volume memoir, "Strawberry Lane" and "Return to Strawberry Lane," were both published by BookSurge in 2007. "How I Built My Retreat Cabin in the Woods and Lived to Write About It" was published by BookSurge in 2008. In 2010, CreateSpace published Edwin's "The Promise and Passion of Christ the King." Since 1961, Edwin has lived in Richardson, Texas with Alma, his beloved wife of 61 years. Following her death in April, 2011, he collected some of her memoirs, journal entries, prayers, and artwork and compiled them in a book entitled "Songs in the Night: Memories of Alma Grace Scroggins" (published by CreateSpace in 2012). Edwin continues to live in the house he and Alma owned for over 50 years.
