Tekula, Jr. was raised atheist in post WWII Levittown, Long Island. Having had a personal conversion as a young adult, the author left college and went on to be a full-time commercial fisherman, which he still is to this day. Having labored his entire adult life in the trade of many of the original apostles, and having had virtually no religious indoctrination as a child, Tekula displays a unique insight into the Holy Scriptures. This comes forth in his first book, The Hidden Kingdom (Writers Club Press 2002), and in this, his second published book. Charles Tekula has earned a Bachelors degree in Public Policy/Labor Studies from SUNY Empire State, spent a year studying at Touro Law Center and has served as a public sector elected union official.view less
