Book Cover & Preview Text
The days of growing up on the little mountain farm resulted in a life full of surprises, never knowing what would be next. The closest grocery store was about four miles away. We had no car, very few people did. A new day dawned and the rolling store came into being. On certain days, the big truck with the bed all boxed in with shelves and bins would make its appearance down the road. I would go with my mother to meet it. This was a big event. She would save eggs from the chickens and use them for cash.

About the Book
God’s Messengers From the Mountains is the book that I have used to attempt to chart the course of Baptist work in Tennessee, North Georgia, and North Carolina. I have written some information about some of the men who have demonstrated deep dedication to their call from the eternal God to preach the Gospel. It is my hope and prayer that this book will indeed bring glory and honor to God as we remember these people who have demonstrated pungent conviction doing the work of the Kingdom.
