IT SEEMS LIKE FOREVER since I have put anything on this blog, and there's a good reason. I've been pretty busy, between ministries, and---here it is---writing a book! It's my second one, and I'm so excited. I feel the Lord has directed me and inspired me all along the way.
I preached to this Massai tribal man and more
out of the top of our African Safari Land Rover
when we were in Kenya, East Africa.

THE MANUSCRIPT IS FINISHED NOW, except for the editing. That's the phase
I'm in right now. If you've never written a book, you should try it! You
probably have many stories to tell, and most important, if you are a Christian,
you have Jesus who has worked in your life to give you those stories. (Maybe
there are some He can't be blamed for! I have a few of them included in my
book!)
This lady is reading the Chick Tract
we just gave her in the laundromat.
AS I BEGAN TO WRITE THIS BOOK, ABOUT 1 1/2
YEARS AGO, I could hardly
believe all the memories and stories I came up with. I'll be 72 soon, on March
7th, and I look back in amazement at the miraculous, providential workings of
God behind me.
When I tried to get all of it together in one gigantic view
(impossible), I felt compelled to tell how God took this girl from the front stoop
of a dead-end street in New York....through so much...and just kept
working on me... and gave me such a wonderful life of ministry and the privilege
of winning souls for Him.
That's exactly
what this book is about. It is titled:
COMPELLED TO TELL:
An Adventurous Journey from a Dead-End Street
in New
York, to a Lifetime of Ministry and Soulwinning.

Man with prosthetic leg picked up the Million Dollar Tract
we had laid on this bench. He stayed and read it thoroughly.
We do feel COMPELLED TO TELL the good news
of the Gospel wherever we go.

I AM SIGNING A CONTRACT WITH WESTBOW
PRESS, an affiliate of
Thomas Nelson Publishers, tomorrow. As I said, I am so excited about it! Please
pray with me as I work out all the editing, and other necessary steps to bring
it to publication.
