Clay in a Potter's Hands is coming soon.

We think we control our lives, but in reality many things are beyond our control. Although we eat right and exercise, we can still have health problems. Our retirement plans are supposed to take care of us in our old age, but a recession changes all that.  If we learn to trust God's plan for us and accept our limits, our lives would be less stressful and more rewarding. 

Clay in a Potter's Hands  For the Love of the Son
For the Love of the Son

Mary is honored as the Mother of God. "For the Love of the Son" draws from four places in the Bible in which her role in the life of her Son is evident.

About Kevin Boos
 		  
  I was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin and moved to Racine when I was in third grade. I lived there until I was sixteen years old. I moved to Idaho where I finished high school  and received my bachelor of science degree in elementary education from Idaho State University. I was involved in education since 1976 in Idaho, Wyoming, and Nebraska, where I currently live. Most of my years of teaching were in Catholic Schools. I spent a couple of years traveling from Wisconsin to Washington giving author presentations at schools.

My interests include music, computers, backpacking, traveling, writing, photography, history, and the environment. I am married and have four grown daughters.

I wish to thank Sound Farm in Jamaica, Iowa for recording "For the Love of the Son." Recording a song I had written was a dream I had for over forty years since I played in a rock band as a high school student. With their help, that dream has finally been fulfilled.
