Dedication

It is with great joy I write this book, through God,

my creator and savior. With his guidance alone he

has granted me the greatest gift of all; the blessing

of my life, my dear wife Brenda Kay (Morgan)

Glover.

I dedicate my first book and the love I hold in my

heart to her. My only prayer is that she could be

given the ability to see herself through my eyes,

only then would she realize how special she is to

me. I love you

Brenda Kay Glover

How to use this book

This Book is designed to aid in your personal bible

study and Christian growth. Many times as we

preach and teach the word of God, the Holy Spirit

comes in and inhabits our praise and our

complete message is never told.

Our prayer is that we allow the Holy Spirit to

reveal the complete message through the pages of

this book. These sermons are written with the

expositional twist. These messages are only

outlines. I would love to call them spiritual

(BONES); the question is, can you the reader put

meat on the bones?

Rivers R. Glover, I

Forward

Wow, just when I thought I could not take it any

further after the death of my twin brother, Pastor

Adrien S Johnson. Dr. Rivers R. Glover, asked me

to write the forward of his new book, I pen the

book titled, “Can These Bones Live.”

As I combed through the pages of the authors

personal life lessons and experiences, I could not

help but to get a better understanding of how to

use the word of God in every situation in life. I

recommend that everyone put this book in your

personal library for inspiration, education, and

encouragement. After reading this book you will

be fully persuaded to know, “These Bones Can

Live,” even when you thought things in your life

were dead.

Unlocking Your Potential”
