Jesus Wept Ministries ● ● ● ● ● ●● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●  -    -  ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● After forty years of reckless behavior, William let his life get completely out of control. While suffering an emotional collapse during the breakup of his 22 year marriage, he was involved in a most unfortunate shooting incident with a partially out of uniform police woman. This resulted in a prison sentence. There he discovered the power of higher education. He earned a degree at Lamar State College. While there he began competing in the Lamar State College annual Expressions Literary contest and became the most winning student in their 23-year history. His writing is a blend of his life experiences, his learning and his bizarre imagination. He crosses all lines and wields his pen like a mighty sword. With psychotic intensity he seeks new fields to invade. But beneath his rough exterior, behind the gnarled mask, hidden by the neurotic gesticulation lies a hopeless romantic, a patriot and a captivating character on an endless search for truth. William Davis is proof that every form of genius is rooted in some form of neurosis.
