“So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.” (2 Corinthians 5:6-8 NKJV)
Dr. Jim and Sherry Johnson
Dr. James J. S. Johnson, “Dr. Jim” as I always refer to has been a regular writer here on the blog. He “joined his Lord in heaven on the night of July 19, 2025. ” We will dearly miss him here on the blog. He has posted many articles about birds which came from his love of birdwatching.
His latest article here Cowbird Mothers: Worse than Infidels? was just published on the 15th.

Golden Eagle and Dr Jim – Circle B by Lee
We, Dan and I, first met Dr. Jim, in person, when he came to our church and presented one of his presentations about Creation. He was writing articles here on the blog before that visit. He found this blog, Lee’s Birdwatching Adventures Plus, while looking for one of the articles he had written about birds. I had seen it, and with permission had copied and posted it here. That incident started our friendship and him posting many birdwatching articles here. He has been writing articles here at least since 2013.
“We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.”
(2 Corinthians 5:8-10 NKJV)

I am sure Dr. Jim is enjoying the delights of heaven and maybe in time, he will meet up with Dan and they can remanence about birdwatching.

Prayers for those who will certainly miss him here. But he has crossed the finish line to Victory! And we shall see him again!

Our sincerest condolences to his wife and family Lee. While it is a sad loss to us hear on earth who have been blessed by his contributions and he will be missed by many, he carries a wonderful hope of salvation and fellowship into the presence of our Lord Jesus as he takes his seat at the wedding feast of the Lamb where we will go later to join him and Dan.
