Originally from South Dakota since 1950, I became a K-12 music educator in 1972. During those 48 years, I taught in MN, Las Vegas, ID, NY, SD, WA, OH and back to SD, officially finishing up my music educator career in North Dakota. I also threw in 13 years as an Independent Bible Baptist pastor in Touchet, WA. I dropped my Baptisticness when I was convinced to follow the apostle Paul in 2002 eventually becoming an online pastor teacher commentator since 2003, retiring from the pulpit in 2009. Now retired, living in Bella Vista, AR. cutting back to one website and one YouTube channel, I continue my personal online 'ministry' - www.paulson1611rd.org. Since I lost most of my early material in a 'crash,' these media sites contain my favorite and 'specially important Bible Studies, making use of PowerPoint Presentations to make what I believe to be the most relevant KJB Bible topics made easy to understand. My Bird Café is my retired life online hobby. Gotta love these birds, really!
