"My friends want me to be able to eat."
When I became a new Christian I was able to be around a gentleman named Mr. Raymond Koffel. He was around 70 years old and owned an "army surplus" store on Carroll Street in Salisbury, Maryland. People used to ask him to give them a special discount "as a friend." His comeback was: "My friends want me to be able to eat." I picked up a lot of wisdom in my visits with him.
This man picked up a harmonica in his parking lot and said that God had put that harmonica there for him to learn. Between ages 70 and 75 he had learned about 100 songs to play on the harmonica. He played in churches. He was truly young at heart.

About Me
- Phil Webster
- Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Phil Webster and I speak at churches and civic groups about the Christian worldview of the Founding Fathers. While doing my presentations I appear in character as John Jay. I have written a book entitled Can a Chief Justice Love God?: The Life of John Jay (Author House, January 2002). My second book is entitled , "1776 Faith" which is based on reading the 25 volumes of the Letters of the Delegates of the Continental Congress. My research shows me that at least 54 of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence are guilty of a Christian worldview (possibly more). To confront the attacks of those who say that the Constitution is godless because it does not mention God, I have written a third book, "Constitutional Faith." The Christian worldview of the signers of the Constitution is shown by their pithiest Christian statements. All 50 states mention God in their state constitutions.
