A thrilling and inspiring true story of how by faith, daring and sheer willpower, Bob Vernon, a twin and one of seven boys raised during the Great Depression, was able to go from his humble and lean Ozarks homestead upbringing near Lebanon, Missouri, to levels of service and success he never dreamed of as a child. Bob Vernon's persistence and mild-mannered magnetism served him well in his early and young adult life, leading to his volunteering for submarine service during World War II, where when the atomic bombs were dropped, he also dedicated his life to serving God in a full time way.He held ministries during the four years he spent studying at Ozark Christian College. On the last stop of a week's promotional tour for the college along with some of his brothers in what would soon become the Vernon Brothers quartet, his heart nearly stopped when he spied a stunning brunet young woman in the packed church audience. Eventually a whirlwind romance developed, and he and his beloved Patricia were soon married and set out on their life-time adventure in ministry and pioneering in early Christian filming and broadcasting. Bob Vernon was an innovator and originator in the early days of television by the filming of a TV series filmed at Universal Studios along with four of the Vernon Brothers, their parents, wives and children.

This led to a life-time of filming, ministering, singing, composing and recording. There were trials and tears along the way, including the loss of their third child Karen Elizabeth in the midst of filming their new television series. But a deep and abiding faith sustained Bob Vernon and the entire Vernon Family which comprised his six brothers, wives, and all the Vernon kids and many grand children and cousins carrying on the legacy today.This book is a must read!
