So sad. May Giles rest in peace, and may God comfort those who loved him.

A prayer this morning for his family. I didn't immediately remember gscott, before looking through some of his posts. I immediately recognized his avatar, and his posts. He was a good guy, and I'll really miss seeing him around.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this. GScott cycled on and off in the time I've been here. He was a fun loving character.

Rats. Nice guy right there.

His book Hooked: An Unlikely Spiritual Journey is a wonderful story of God chasing after a man until he finally turns. I'll read it again when I get back home.

Prayers for his family. Grateful to have been able to know him in even this limited capacity.

A great loss. Prayers for his family.

I've look past this thread a thousand times over the last couple years but it caught my eye today for some reason. I've read and re-read Giles' book three times. Lorian Hemingway's book Walk On Water is the only other book I've read more than twice. Anyway, Giles' book Hooked: An Unlikely Spiritual Journey is available free on kindle right now if you need something to read while quarantined. Find it here.
