The author Thomas Moore is the son of Fon
Moore, a former United Airlines pilot who in
WWII was a pilot of a C47 Skytrain fl ying "the
hump" from India to China, in the China Burma
India theatre. When Tom was a sophomore
at Thousand Oaks High School, CA. his dad
and older brother were killed in a car accident
on the Conejo Grade in 1967. Tom then threw
himself into the arms of Father God and desired
to obtain a close personal relationship with God
through the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal
Savior. In 1969 he joined the Navy and when
assigned to an oiler stationed in Long Beach,
CA. he became the object of hatred and abuse
as he was heavily persecuted for his Christian
faith. He refused the invitation to join the crew
at a brothel in the Philippines, which they took
as a personal judgment against them. Tom returned
love for their hate and decided by faith
to always be full of joy. Three years later Tom
led exactly 10% of the ship's crew to faith in Jesus. Tom's love for the Lord Jesus and
His Word, led him to work on learning Koine Greek. He developed his own learning
program by making elementary style school readers in the Koine Greek. This not only
greatly accelerated his learning the Greek but found that reading a collection of elementary
Greek Scriptures became his favorite devotional. It is Tom's hopes that others will
fi nd the joy in learning and reading the Greek text as he does. Castle Rock, CO. 7/30/24
