Bruce T. Forbes


award-winning
writer, poet, lyricist, and hymnist


Bruce T. Forbes is an award-winning author and hymnist. His religious short stories have been published world-wide in children's religious magazines, and his patriotic stories, essays, editorials, and poems have been published throughout the U.S. military newspaper system. Additionally, he has appeared in guest editorial columns at internet news sites in Israel on the topics of Peace and Religious Harmony.

Mr. Forbes is the father of eight children and twice a grandfather. He served for two years as a missionary in Japan and taught children's religious classes for over twenty years. He continues to look for new ways to teach children through story, poem, and song. He is currently a member of the Hymn Society in the United States and Canada.

After two decades of traveling the world in the armed forces, he and his family have settled in the western United States and are enthusiastically sinking roots.
 

"As a missionary and as a military man, I've traveled the world and seen a lot of good and a lot of beauty. I have also seen a lot of ugliness. It seems all the beauty I've seen can be attributed to a very loving God - this is what I want to spend the rest of my life celebrating."
