NOTES

Read by Chris Fabry

In 1979, Larry Jones was ministering in Haiti, where he was approached by a young boy who hadnt eaten all day. The child asked for a nickel to buy a roll. Recalling the wheat surplus back home in Oklahoma, Jones soon started Feed The Children, initially a wheat-exporting outreach, that grew into one of the worlds largest and most respected charities. Year after year, it efficiently distributes food and other essentials to impoverished families throughout the United States and much of the rest of the world. In this audio, Jones describes his journey from a childhood as the son of two barbers in Americas heartland to a career that takes him to war-torn countries and areas devastated by natural disastersas well as into the halls of Congress and the offices of foreign governments to solicit support and funding. Rich in moving stories, Keep Walking offers vivid insights into the faith that moved Jones to do Gods work and shows listeners that they, too, can make a difference
