Emanuel Lapp is a husband of forty-one years, father to ten children, and grandfather to twenty-two grandchildren. He currently lives in Milbank, South Dakota, with his wife and their youngest daughter.
Lapp served as a Pastor until 2011, when he suffered a near fatal accident. As a result of his extended hospital stay and miraculous recovery, the need to redeem the time given to him was impressed on his heart as never before, and the writing of this book began.
