Previously he has served churches in several other locations, including six years in Hong Kong and five years as the Ministerial Director for the Potomac Conference of Seventh-day Adventists in Virginia, Washington, D.C., and southern Maryland.
He has previously co-authored two other books with Len McMillian. In 1994 they wrote, “First-Class Male” and in 1996 they followed with, “Putting Up With Mr. Right.” Marvin has been a frequent speaker for men’s retreats, pastor’s retreats, couple’s retreats, campmeetings, and other convocations both in the U.S. as well as Asia and Europe.
He has been married to his wife, Ingrid, for almost forty years and they have three married children and five perfect grandchildren. Both Marvin and Ingrid love to travel, walk, browse through small out of the way towns and just be together. They have a perfect marriage in that Ingrid loves to golf and ride the motorcycle and Marvin loves to go shopping with her.
His real passion in ministry is to share the absolute assurance of God’s gift of salvation and to make that as simple as possible. Building real relationships with other people and with Jesus Christ is the fundamental structure of a Christian journey and that journey will never end throughout all of eternity.
