Description
A Visit to Planet Earth is a commentary in summary form of the Holy Bible and its principles as viewed by Sam Hartfield, who passed away in 2010. Jim Stratton and his wife, Rebecca, Sams sister, have written this book from notes and conversations with Sam in the years before his death.
We sincerely hope that this little book will not only give you insight into a basic interpretation of the Bibles core values but also that it will help you connect some of those values with the inspired Word of God. Our country was founded on basic laws expressed in the Word and are ones that our country should hold near and dear.
It is our wish that you find peace, solace, and joy within these pages.
