Webmaster's Background

Welcome!

Hello, I'm Ron Newhouse the editor and webmaster for "Daily Devotions - A Few Moments With God" web site. I hope you will read these devotions everyday to help you grow closer to God. Jesus said, "Very truly, I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life."

My ministry is in church administration where oversee all the administrative functions of the church I serve.

I am also a United States Navy Chaplain. It is an awesome blessing to be able to serve God and my country.
