As a pastor in 1960's Mississippi, John Perkins first focused exclusiveIy on evangeIism and Bible Iiteracy, but he soon came to the conviction that Gospel ministry must address both spirituaI and physical needs. ln 1969 he helped lead an economic boycott of segregated businesses, an action that led to his arrest and torture by Iocal poIice.

This documentary teIIs the story of John Perkins, his wife Vera Mae, and their famiIy. Their very personal refIections on life and ministry provide countIess points of spiritual insight and chaIIenge. |
