TO GOD BE THE GLORY
Montreal native and singer Kathy Veer has performed everywhere from cafés to churches to concert halls. She developed a keen interest for music at the tender age of four, listening to artists like Al Martino, Sarah Vaughn, Dionne Warwick, and the Supremes. At the age of eleven, she joined the school choir and it so inspired her, that she wrote her first song. Her music teacher was amazed, and sent her song to Anne Murray to be recorded. Though nothing materialized, Kathy did perform the song with the school choir at their year end concert.
At the age of fourteen, Kathy gained an interest in the drum set. The next year she was chosen to play drums for her high school’s nationally acclaimed big band (through the Canadian Stage Band Festival). She held that chair through grade twelve, and went on to play for the City of Edmonton big band for another year. At twenty, Miss Veer entered music school where she earned an associate’s degree in music composition. She also sang with various jazz, pop, rock, and country groups and earned her living as a working musician through the 1980s.
Kathy enjoyed many musical opportunities, but the flip side of that was the fast lane and the night life. Her existence spiraled into an emptiness that over-shadowed her life in profound ways. She had met the Lord Jesus at age thirteen, but wasn’t ever serious about him until this crisis. At age twenty-seven, with no hope left for living, Kathy gave her heart to Jesus Christ. It was the best decision she ever made. Of course her life didn’t get tidied up in an instant. But before too long, God had set her feet on a straight path, and good things began to happen.
In 1992, Miss Veer felt God was calling her back to school. She went to study at Toccoa Falls College in Toccoa, Georgia, majoring in psychology and Christian counseling. After receiving her bachelor’s degree, she proceeded to work in this field over the next year. But she knew in her heart this was not the profession for her. She hadn’t made any other plans, and was listening intently for what God might have in store for her.
The Lord showed her His will in a mighty way when he brought a husband into her life. He was a minister and loved God. Soon, they knew the Lord was calling them to marry. They wed in 1997, and pursued various types of ministries over the years. Prison ministry has been a big part of their lives. Kathy set up a choir and rhythm section at Augusta State Medical Prison, and directed that group for about three years. Later, God opened the door for Kathy to direct a small church choir in Gibson, Georgia. She was there for five years.
Kathy Veer currently hosts praise and worship on a fill in basis and offers concerts in church sanctuary settings. She ministers along side her husband through various venues. But her greatest desire is that people everywhere would know the Lord, Jesus in a close, intimate way and worship Him in Spirit and in truth.

On the night of November 6, 1977, the lives of several hundred people were changed forever when a wall of water poured over the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi river.
Water dropped 186 feet onto automobile size boulders, then careened downstream 55 feet high, traveling 110 miles per hour.
It raged through a college campus, taking everything in its path, to Lake Hartwell, 20 miles away. Doug Veer was a survivor.
Within these pages you'll find the true account of what happened that stormy night in November in a small college town in North East Georgia. With God, all things are possible, even in the Valley of Death.

A wild, disobedient boy leaves his home near Chicago at the age of 14, believing he can do it all, alone. He signs up for Navy service where he finds danger, intrigue, and adventure. And like many other young people, he tries alcohol and drugs. Then Doug tries marriage; he makes more than one attempt at it. But each one goes bad. Then there’s the motorcycle gangs and the illicit relationships, but his future remains destined to destruction. He even decides to accept Jesus Christ as His Savior, but somehow his commitment is shallow, leading to more years of trouble.
Later in life, through a difficult divorce, Doug loses his children. It’s at that point that he’s driven to break the law, is convicted, and faces 13½ to 27 years in a federal penitentiary.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to sail the ocean in a submarine? What if the sirens went off? Would you clutch your chest as warnings bellowed that an enemy ship was near by or that your ship was approaching crush-depth or the onboard oxygen was running out? Submariners agree to risk such things when they sign up for Navy Duty. Doug Veer is one of those brave men. He joined the United States Submarine Service at just seventeen years old. He shares some of his most harrowing experiences along with funny, lighthearted stories during his time on these submersible boats.

It's a marvelous thing to know that the Creator of the universe loves each of us so much that He sent His only Son to die on a cross for our sins. But we wouldn’t want to fall into His hands and face Him as our judge.
Meet John and Abdul--friends since grade school--they each followed their own faith which shaped their destinies. The choices were theirs to make, but the outcomes were very different. One followed Jesus as Savior; the other faced Jesus as Judge.
Will God reject us for our weaknesses and failures when we enter eternity? Not if we have applied His shed blood to cover our sins. But those who reject Him WILL be judged and will spend eternity without Him.
