Faithful in Small Things Guides Youth for Christ Life
A memoir like snapshot recounts a time in the 1960s when Word Books and Word Records engaged Christian bookstores in Illinois Wisconsin and the St Louis area. It traces meetings with industry figures at conventions in Philadelphia Winona Lake and Milwaukee and describes inviting Ken Anderson Dave Breese and others to Word booths. The narrative weaves scripture with evangelism efforts including a planned Youth for Christ crusade near O Hare Airport and a renewed call to youth outreach in the Tri state area.
