L. Trott who was in Denver City TX in 1950 when I was

II. The person who trained me to be a soulwinner was….Jerry Thorpe, who was pastor in El Paso in
1963 at the time. I had taken Personal
Evangelism classes in Bible College, for which I will be eternally grateful,
but Brother Thorpe took me door-to-door winning souls. Thank the Lord for his training.
III. Heroes who encouraged me to “stay on
the firing line” winning souls were…..
Thank the Lord for Dr. John R. Rice and the
“Sword of the Lord” for keeping me on the firing line for souls; Dr. Jack Hyles, my hero, who went from church to church all over
America encouraging us all to win souls.
IV. Outstanding soul-winners who I have
known personally and where they were at the time include Dr. Bob Gray of
Longview Baptist Temple, Tom Haughey of McAllen TX,
Herb Stoneman of Utah/Idaho and Arizona, and Philip
Davila of Longview Texas, a teenager at the time. Thank God for their influence
to others in winning souls. Philip Davila carried his Bible and read it constantly and won
500 to the Lord in a year. A local
pastor is also a great and wonderful soul-winner, Danny Gandy of Greenville,
Texas.
