Hangin with Web Show Gods & Spies With Author & Missionary Garry Matheny: an interview on the Hangin With Web Show
Author G.M. Matheny shares his new book GOD & SPIES, based on a true story, on Amazon.com. He served in the US Navy as an elite saturation diver on the nuclear submarine USS Halibut. He was involved in one of America's most important (and dangerous) clandestine operations. If you like espionage and American history, you will enjoy this interview.
Excerpt. This was the second wreck I had been in, in just two months. Both wrecks were my fault, my new car was totaled, and now I had hurt my dad. I had been going around doing my own thing, not concerned with, or even considering, others' feelings. My only concern was making myself happy. But in that hospital room, my dad was looking at me and wondering if raising me had been worth it. I didn't like seeing my dad look like that. I decided then to do something that would please him and not me. Without realizing it, I began to obey the Bible-"Honour thy father." So I signed up for the navy, not because I wanted to but to make my dad happy. I became a navy diver for my dad. He used to like watching the TV program Sea Hunt, starring Lloyd Bridges. He even said one time, "Garry, we ought to take up diving." Well, he never did, but I did for him, thinking this would make him proud of me and put a smile on his face.
Though at first, I was not interested in diving, five years later I was Russian Territorial waters and begging God to let me make a top-secret dive in Siberia. We were 21 saturation divers and had practiced for more than a year for this one special operation, but only eight of us would be chosen to make the dives. I prayed to God to let me be one of the eight daredevil divers, jockeying to make this dive. But when I prayed about it, I had the impression the Lord only wanted to know one thing, "What if I don't let you make the dive? Will you serve me anyway?"

Endgame
The time is the late '80s, a crucial period in the history of South Africa. President P.W. Botha is hanging on to power by a thread as the African National Congress (ANC) takes up arms against apartheid and the country tumbles toward insurrection. A British mining concern is convinced that their interests would be better served in a stable South Africa and they quietly dispatch Michael Young, their head of public affairs, to open an unofficial dialogue between the bitter rivals. Assembling a reluctant yet brilliant team to pave the way to reconciliation by confronting obstacles that initially seem insurmountable, Young places his trust in ANC leader Thabo Mbeki and Afrikaner philosophy professor Willie Esterhuyse. It is their empathy that will ultimately serve as the catalyst for change by proving more powerful than the terrorist bombs that threaten to disrupt the peaceful dialogue.
