Last Days

John Brightman Brock is a veteran journalist of newspapers and magazines in three states from the years 1977 to 2019. Reared in a Christian home, and with high hopes of success, Brock one day answered God's call to be led by the Holy Spirit. That decision whisked him away from aspiring toward a medical degree and, instead, had him a few years later-pen and pad in hand-"journaling my world," he says. It was a world of community and statewide events, where he and those whom he knew had been placed by a loving God. Nothing random. Nothing coincidental.He would write about the political moves of four governors, sometimes with exclusive interviews. At times, Brock talked one-on-one with entertainers and nationally- recognized politicians, musicians, or writers. At other times, he found himself standing in situations of danger, including his own near-death experiences that would shape his faith. He was always "standing in the need of prayer."
