Welcome to JimSwanson.com - a site dedicated to sharing insights from my personal Bible studies and quotes I like.
The site sections are accessible through the links above. “About” shares more on who I am and my background. “Thoughts” is the main section this site was designed for and can be accessed through the excerpts at right or by using the index in the far right column. The “Stories” page links to another site containing a series of stories I wrote for our local paper. “Music” contains information and samples of songs I have written as memory aids to learning Bible verses.
Contact me if you'd like to leave some feedback or submit a question you would like me to address sometime.

“Friend, you cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. And what one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government can’t give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody. And when half of the people get the idea they don’t have to work because the other half’s going to take care of them, and when the other half get the idea it does no good to work because somebody’s going to get what I work for. That, dear friend, is about the end of any nation.”
-Adrian Rogers (1984)
