Raised by parents who had little or no time for love, Earl W. Freeland grew up in a small West Virginia mountain town, drifted aimlessly as a teenager, and wound up like nearly everyone else in his community working as a coal miner. He married and was living a life of sin. After accepting Jesus Christ as his personal Savior, he attended a Christian & Missionary Alliance college and became an ordained minister. He then pastored three churches in Pennsylvania before coming to Portsmouth, VA, in 1959 to fulfill God's call. He built a church and Christian school, serving as pastor of the Portsmouth Christian & Missionary Alliance until his "retirement" in 1987. That is a clinical look at his life. Dull stuff? Nothing could be further from the truth. At every step along the way, Preacher "A Man Sent From God" peels off another layer of this man's willingness to let God work through him. This book is an invitation to kick back and share a remarkable journey as seen through Preacher's eyes as well as those of his family and friends. From a young man whose gambling habit was so ingrained he would bet on which fence post a bird would land on to a pastor who would raise up a church of nearly 500 members, you will witness God's awesome power and Preacher's unyielding faith. It includes a mixture of laughter, tears, ups and downs, and ultimately God's goodness for those who faithfully honor and proclaim His glorious name.
