Herman was born and raised on the Navajo reservation. His grandparents brought him up in the Navajo language, culture, and tradition. As a teenager he jumped in the back of a truck for a two-week work opportunity, and headed off the rez for the first time in his life. He was surprised and intrigued by what he saw… and decided he wanted to explore this new world. Two weeks turned into two years… and what happened in that time changed his life forever. Listen as Herman shares about his culture, his faith, and the amazing adventures he had as a follower of Jesus Christ. Herman is home with the Lord now, but his story continues to inspire and challenge those who hear it. We hope it will do the same for you.

Mr. William’s life left such a powerful impression on me that I wanted to visit him, and tell him personally, only to find out he had passed away. I felt so very sad that I I hadn’t got a chance to meet this awesome individual. My goodness what a wonderful, and beautiful human being. He reminded me so very much of my own Dad. I later found out about other happenings of his life from a written story from his son on the internet. He talked about other things that happened in his father’s life, when he was a Pastor,. before he died. I cannot find this information any longer, that his son wrote on the internet any longer. If you could pass this information to me , I would be so grateful. Thank you so much for “ Without Reservation “. It really helped me so much when I was going through a hard time. May God forever bless you, and your ministry. Sincerely, Rena
