He married Sarah J. Haviland on January 17, 1981. They had 5 children. Roger was a Southern Baptist minister that became enlightened to the fact that there is "more" of God than most religions allow you to encounter.
Roger was known for having spur of the moment ideas and God used him through that. The church secretary, Dana Burris, at the time of most of these writings tells it like this: "Dana, I was minding my own business last night when the Lord told me to write a devotion book and He wants you to help me. I immediately knew we were in for a lot of hard work. Pastor Roger worked diligently on this project and wasn't real particular what he used to dictate his thoughts down on.... Tragically, before the book was finished, Pastor Roger was killed in a farming accident. ...As you read these pages, I know you will be blessed, refreshed and encouraged. My life was deeply enriched by his pastoring and his amazing understanding of the Scriptures."
Roger never met a stanger and was well known throughout his ministry. His passion for people and to see them have a greater relationship with our Savior was evident in his life. May you be blessed and refreshed as you read this book of inspiring wisdom penned by a great man of God.
Completed in memory of a pastor, friend and my husband.
Blessings on you,
Sarah J. Hicks
