'You're not an educator, you can't found a school.' These are the first words that evangelist Dr. Bob Jones Sr., heard when he announced he was going to start a Christian college. His response was, 'I know I can't, but God can!' Thus began Bob Jones College, later to become Bob Jones University, a school that has affected the lives of tens of thousands of young people and that for 75 years has been an ensign for fundamentalist Christianity throughout the world. Standing Without Apology, now available in a special 75th anniversary edition, is more than an account of one man's unflinching resolve, it is the true story of a modern-day servant who caught God's vision, answered God's call, and trusted God to do a work far above and beyond himself. |
