Warren L John’s most recent book, “Loma Linda Goes Global” is a must read even for those well-versed in the rich history of Loma Linda as well as those acquainted with the Word of God. Johns takes the reader on a journey through creation dispelling nearly every misrepresentation made by the renowned “Father of Evolution,” Charles Darwin, all the while, replacing every untruth with a factual truth supported by various sources but relying heavily on the book of all books-The Holy Bible. He travels through time in an adventure full of historic ideas, people and places as he implements his personal experiences everywhere possible. Warren spent nearly a decade of his life in Loma Linda, “rubbing shoulders" with those we often read about in various articles written about the city. He is the child of a Pastor, which in itself can be a harrowing experience. His father pastored a College Church as well as laboring to build what is now La Sierra University Church. Johns is eager to share with his readers and record events that would soon be overshadowed by the technological advances and strides the city is making in the field of medicine.
“Loma Linda Goes Global,” is full of beautiful pictures of historic people and places that make up the local city we all know and love today. It is a wonderfully ornate trip through time and a thought provoking journey requiring one to read through the scriptures which inevitably lead to some meaningful self-examination with the final intent...to "make man whole". It is the culmination of 88 years of life put into 235 pages and delicately seasoned with amazing, history-capturing photos. A must read for all!
