From Monday, January 20, 2014 

John M. Perkins was born into Mississippi poverty, the son of a sharecropper. He fled to California when he was 17 after his older brother was murdered by a town marshal.

Although Dr. Perkins vowed never to return, in 1960, after he accepted Christ, he returned to his boyhood home to share the gospel of Christ with those still living in the region. His outspoken support and leadership role in civil rights demonstrations resulted in repeated harassment, imprisonment, and beatings. He was one of the leading evangelical voices to come out of the American civil rights movement. He is also an internationally known author, speaker, and teacher on issues of racial reconciliation and Christian community development.

He was the author of nine books including A Quiet Revolution, Let Justice Roll Down, With Justice For All, Beyond Charity, He’s My Brother, Resurrecting Hope, and A Time to Heal. He has written numerous chapters in other books. 

“Godly leadership is not about attaining recognition or glory; it’s about serving others.” 
—John M. Perkins, Leadership Revolution

In this talk the opening prayer is done by former ��ɬֱ�� President Michael Le Roy, introduced by Nate Bradford, and the Q&A was moderated by Rick Treur.
