About James & Tonya Ridley Amazon Author Page → James James Ridley brings a rare blend of experience and conviction to his writing, shaped by decades of work across technical, business, and ministry fields. With over thirty years as an originating writer, he has authored hundreds of white papers, manuals, policies, and procedures. Today, his expertise in records retention and e-discovery serves organizations navigating complex compliance environments. But beyond the professional, James writes with a deeper purpose—to encourage, equip, and edify. James’ journey of faith began in his youth, when a friendship in Boy Scout Troop 21 led him to Christ and sparked a lifelong love for the King James Bible. That early foundation deepened through service in the US Navy, where he led shipboard Bible studies and witnessed God’s transforming work firsthand. Now based in California’s Napa Valley with his wife Tonya, James continues to teach, write, and serve through his local church, committed to helping others grow in wisdom, truth, and spiritual strength. You’ll find James writing across multiple genres, always with an eye toward life’s real challenges and the hope found in the Gospel. Follow James on Amazon, Facebook, YouTube, and X.
