Texas History: Who is Parson Rose?

Growing up in Texas, I quickly learned that Texas was special. From the mountains out west to the coastal plains, Texas provides enough of whatever you need to be happy. Born and raised in San Antonio, I have also lived in Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and now Richmond. And everywhere I went, Texas History grabbed my attention. There are so many exciting stories, that I started to write them in my journal, and eventually I published the book, “God and Texas.”

Since 1994, I have also been known as Parson Rose. I have written inspirational and motivational materials that have been published internationally through hard copy materials, leadership study books, websites, and various social media including LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. “God and Texas” was my first book that was totally dedicated to Texas History.

But since publishing the book, I have written more true stories that stir interest. Those stories are now being presented through this blog. As a member of the Executive Committee of the Fort Bend County Historical Commission and as Vice President of the Fort Bend Archaeological Society, I have opportunity to learn more about the old days of Texas. Together with a strong library of books on the Lone Star State, over 73 years of life experiences, and the help of noted history buffs, we travel down the dusty roads where hearty pioneers found their new home. Won’t you join me in some good reading?
