Equipping You to Live More Fully and Fruitfully
When
Ron Meyers followed his passion for international missions work 40 years ago, he
never imagined the rich educational curriculum God had for him. A lifetime of
spiritual challenges groomed him for his role at the School of Theology and
Missions at Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, OK. Today, he prepares Christian
ministry candidates as ORU’s Professor of Missions and Coordinator of the Master
of Arts in Missions program.
Meyers wrote his book with life application in mind. He weaves his stories into each habit by providing real-life, insightful, and applicable examples. Habits of Highly Effective Christians guides you through biblical resources for creating a rich tapestry with the fibers of your own life.
I’ve reviewed many books during my publishing career. Most books have four or five strong chapters. Habits of Highly Effective Christians is a strong book cover to cover filled with life-changing tools that will increase your effectiveness in your personal and professional life.

What Others Say about This Book
“Reading Habits of Highly Effective Christians was a breath of fresh air. Ron has successfully connected the dots between an unlikely combination of words: habits, happy, and holy. Thank you, Ron, for living the habits in a life-giving way and sharing them with the rest of us.”
Gregg Johnson, National Youth Communicator, Founder of Movement Makers International
“If you want to be challenged to think deeper, go further, and live your Christian faith more fully and fruitfully, the run to get this book. With his direct and plainspoken application of Scripture and lessons learned from his own rich life, he will make you think anew about yours. This book will change you. I promise.”
Barbara Wolfer, Housewife, Zealous Christian, and English Professor
“Ron Meyers’ book is a superb resource for maturing Christians who want to be challenged, encouraged, and counseled in living lives that count for Christ. This warm and readable work has all the humanity of a man in love with his Lord and his subject. It is witty and wise, and I heartily recommend it.”

About the Author
Ron Meyers, PhD was born in 1944 and raised in a pioneer pastor’s home. In 1965, he began pastoral ministry as a student pastor in a rural community 70 miles from the Bible college he attended in mid-Ohio.
He, with his wife, Char, served more years outside the U.S. as pastors in Canada and missionaries in Korea and China than their years in the U.S. From 1996 through 2006, he served as the Professor of Missions and Coordinator of the Master of Arts in Missions program in the School of Theology and Missions at Oral Roberts University. During those years, he traveled to African, Asian, European, and Middle Eastern nations on summer breaks. He and Char now live in southern Africa and train pastors in the more than 40 sub-Sahara nations of southern Africa. He has two adult sons, Dan and Joel, a daughter-in-law, Elizabeth, and five grandchildren.
