My name is Ollie Fobbs, I was Ordained in 1986, went in the military in 1988, after being married to my second wife Joyce Smith, I was stationed in Germany for two years, there I joined a local Protestant Church, where the pastor led me in the things of Holiness and the preached word. Upon getting back to Richmond Virginia, I started trying to find work anywhere I could. During the course of the next ten years, many would reject me as a man of God, many would deny me a place of employment, and teaching the word, where ever I was, became the order of the day. I became homeless two times during this season of my life, and the devil made valuable attempts to get me to move back into an old lifestyle that I had already defeated, during this time, I found out just how good God really was. I was hungry, and I made use of public trash cans, I was in need of bathing, and God helped me to make use of the local river and streams. then I started doing ministry courses on the web, one was of a school in India, it was a great course, three times a week, I went to the Library to do the weeks assignments, after four years of study with them, they sent me a grade average and said that I was a graduate, but the degree never showed up which was fine. Two years later, I moved to Winston Salem North Carolina, that was when I married my present wife LaVonia Boartwright Fobbs. She has been a God sent from the word go, we have really enjoyed life, and we are presently looking to take life to the next level and travel extensively, but, that still too depends on what the Lord wants of us. My son, Andy Reid, still lives in Richmond Virginia, his daughters Ashleigh and Jade, live there too. My brothers, and mother are also in Richmond Virginia. life has been great over the past almost 10 years now, the Lord at this point has blessed me with 112 published books, and I still have another 172 that I am working on. Currently I live in Winston Salem North Carolina, I have spent time in Germany with the United States Army, I have spent time in Dayton Ohio, I tried many times to move to Florida, and to other places, but they were all failed attempts. I have been a Tractor Trailer drive, Tour Bus driver, Limo Driver, School Bus Driver, Business Owner, Grocer Clerk, Pastor, Camp Administrator, and now I currently work in a Bakery, Go Figure right? The Lord is good and His plan is forever changing working out for our good if we would just allow it to happen.
