- "I read Bill's book - Peterburgers, during my travels. I absolutely loved it!! There were times I was laughing out loud on the plane. When he was describing all the "medical intervention" he went through with his arm, I felt so sorry for him but at the same time I was cracking up. He has got a way with words and I think his books would be so helpful to people to people who are in missions. It is really practical stuff." —Lorri Van Diest, Instructional Planner
