Born on a farm near Muleshoe, Texas, during the days immediately following the depression, the author traveled a long distance to make his contribution of enriching the lives of others in Colombia, South America.. During his senior year of high school, he experienced a growing conviction that his life work would be seeking to enrich the lives of others with the Christian faith. The author relates the financial struggles he endured while getting the formal education necessary to fulfill his life's dream, including studies for the ministry at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas. He completed the doctor of theology degree in May of 1957. In 1954 he married Mary Nell Morrison, whom he had met at Hardin-Simmons University. They were appointed to be missionaries of the Foreign Mission Board, to serve as teachers at the International Baptist Theological Seminary in Cali, Colombia. They relate the joys and struggles related to living in a foreign country and rearing their four children there. The author relates critical experiences endured during the thirty-four years that they served in Colombia, including automobile accidents, the near tragic death of a daughter in a swimming pool, being stung by bees, a boat trip to help victims of a tsunami near the Pacific Coast of Colombia, and dangers endured while helping the people who survived the eruption of a volcano. They also had to be alert to the dangers presented by the increasing drug traffic during the 1980s in western Colombia. He and his wife affirm their faith in the truth that trusting in God's protection brought them through dangerous times. Dr. Giles has written several textbooks in Spanish for theological students. He has written a daily devotional book, "Healing Words," and "Pastoral Care and Counseling" and "Biblical Ethics, and Contemporary Concepts in English."
