About Us

Hi, I’m Ken McFarland—founder of Page One Communications. You’ll notice that on this website, I speak in the “first person plural”—using “we” or “us” instead of “I.” It’s true that I complete most Page One projects personally. But on many complex projects, it becomes a team effort.

For example, I may edit, design, and do page layout for a book—but team up with someone else for the cover design. Or I may take a manuscript someone else has edited and complete the page layout.

Here’s a brief summary of my qualifications—and some of the positions I’ve held:

• Vice President for Editorial (editor-in-chief) at Pacific Press Publishing Association
• Associate Editor, SIGNS OF THE TIMES Magazine
• Assistant Editor, INSIGHT Magazine
• Author: 17 published books
• Writer: More than 100 published magazine articles
• Author of Adult Sabbath School Lessons on Gospel of John
• Writer/Editor on “New Beginnings” DVD project
• Author/Editor/Designer of Railway to the Moon, Loma Linda centennial history
• Editor/Page layout: Thirsty Elephant, Paradise Valley Hospital 90th anniversary history
• Scriptwriter for It Is Written and Voice of Prophecy
• Six years as an editor at a leading healthcare publisher
• U.S. Senate campaign marketing (Idaho candidate)
• Pastor of churches in Texas, New Mexico, California, and Washington State
• Member: General Conference Methods of Bible Study Committee
• Member: Southwestern Union Conference Committee; Washington Conference Committee
• Speaker: Church retreats, civic events, youth congresses, writer's conferences, and camp meetings
