SQuire Rushnell is a former television producer for ABC. He was a key player in the rise of “Good Morning America,” “Schoolhouse Rock” and ABC’s after school specials. After 9-11, he changed the direction of his life. He began collecting stories about what some would call coincidences, which he calls God winks. This obsession resulted in books, videos and a Website. Rushnell and his wife, comedian Louise DuArt, also tour the country promoting prayer for couples. SQuire pays particular attention to coincidences that are statistically highly unlikely. He sees them as God winking at us and letting us know He is there and thinking about us. We don’t have to believe in the divine origin of all the stories to believe God is there and cares about us. We can keep our eyes open for the winks.
