Dear Reader,
First of all, though it may be unbelievable as you begin to read this story, every single word about the bigotry and racism which plagued a small church and school in Oak Lawn, Illinois, is the absolute truth. Though some of the names and events have been altered to protect the innocent, every event occurred between 1950 and 2000, just as I have recorded them.
Next, I want you to know this book is written to be an encouragement to anyone who is trying their best to live a consistent God-centered life. If it seems as if the darkness is closing in and victory looks impossible…don’t give up, stay in the fight. This book will remind you that our God is on the throne and he rules over the darkness as well as the light. In fact, he has promised to give us treasures in the dark according to Isaiah 54:3. This book tells the story of some ordinary men and women who became extraordinary by choosing to fight the good fight in spite of the darkness and found those treasures in the dark.
Most of all, I want you to know the real solution to ending the bigotry, hatred, and hypocrisy, which have been ripping our nation and world apart.
Please read this book with an open mind and heart. The solution will probably not surprise you, but I hope it will inspire and challenge you to become part of the solution, which will change this old world for God’s glory!
In Christ,
Jerry Silver
