Paul R. Dekar is Professor Emeritus of Evangelism and Mission, Memphis Theological Seminary, and is a prolific author. His works include Thomas Merton: God's Messenger on the Road Towards a New World and ""In an Inescapable Network of Mutuality"" Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Globalization of an Ethical Ideal.
""With Life Abundant, Paul Dekar invites the reader on two journeys--make that three. The first is the canvas--a remarkable family tree--fully populated only latterly as Paul discovered far-flung branches and twigs he did not know existed. The second is a winding career pathway he walked discerning a calling, one that shifts and turns, tossed about by the intersecting turmoil of the 1960s. The third features a cast of the famous and the humble, mentors and friendships that have lasted a lifetime. As my church history professor, he changed my life irrevocably, lighting in me some of the same flame for peace that has animated his life. This is a treasure trove of love, courage, wisdom, curiosity, audacity, and determination--one life, seeds sown in thousands more."" --LeeAnn McKenna, Founder, Partera International ""Reflecting on a journey defined by remarkable relationships and rich experiences, Professor Dekar highlights those deep movements of heart and soul that are the hallmarks of his abundant life: the love of family, the cultivation of lifelong friendships, service to the community, the beauty of the natural world, and quiet prayer that issues forth in a commitment to dignity, justice, peace, human rights, and harmonious relations with creation."" --Barry Morrison, Retired Pastor
