Norman has dabbled in writing most of his life but only became serious about it in 2003, when he felt compelled to write a book, Females in a Forbidden Zone, to address the position Southern Baptists took against allowing women to pastor. His first blog was www.thehumblelife.easyjournal.com. He later changed sites to www.humilityweakly.blogspot.com. This book resulted after eleven years of reading and writing on the meaning and application of humility. Norman currently writes a blog at www.normandrummond.com that he calls God’s Word Matters. Connie, Norman’s sweet wife, has been by his side for thirty-seven years. Their daughter, Rachel, is mother to their four granddaughters. She is a graduate of Georgia State University and a pastor's wife in Mississippi. Their son, Daniel, is a graduate of University of Georgia and founder/owner of HyperSpace Technologies, LLC in Athens, Georgia.view less
