Cain was born in 1957 in the Ozark Mountains of Southwest Missouri. He earned his undergraduate degree in philosophy and religion from College of the Ozarks and briefly studied at Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. For the past twenty-five years, he has made a private study of Christian Protestant Reformed Orthodoxy/Theology, with his favorite works being those of John Calvin, John Bunyan, C.H. Spurgeon, Francis Schaeffer, Alistair Begg, and John Stott, with invaluable guidance and direction from the Rev. Dr. Courtney Furman, Professor Emeritus, College of the Ozarks.
In his youth, he discovered the joys of hiking with his dog in the mountains, camping, fishing, and spelunking, along with losing himself in a good novel. He began writing in his early fifties after some encouragement from his daughter. He lives in Florida with his wife and works as a museum administrator. He hopes, someday, to return to his beloved mountains.view less
