David Ebel has always been a creative force for good. Photography is how he can capture what he envisions in his mind and heart and captures it through the lens of his camera. He has won awards for his work and has been embraced by a loyal following as a collectable artist. Life wasn’t always easy. Starting my life with birth defects and at age 6 adding juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, he grew up with chronic pain which increased as he got older. Trying to escape the pain, I attempted and failed to end my life. Instead, he found faith in God, who changed his life and called him to love people and share God’s love. With that challenge, I began seeking creative ways to reach people with God's love and hope for being renewed, restored, and finding hope and vision for their lives. Now, in retirement, in addition to his photography, he has time to write, his firs book is now in print: When the Doctors say NO! God says YES!!! to encourage even more people. He is also a frequent guest on podcasts nationally.
