I have two great loves outside of my love for Christ. I have loved Africa for the better part of my adulthood. I also have loved my wife, Kimberly since our first date. As I travelled up a river in Elmina, Ghana in 2009 called the river "Benya" it was explained to me by one of the locals that this name was chosen by some of the earliest settlers for this coastal town and it meant, "I have found it". Returning to America later the following month, I had a bracelet made for my love with this inscribed on its beads, BENYA. When I found my sweet wife, it was emotion akin to that of those who found this West African river. I had found it. I had found true love, BENYA!!!
