He was known in the culture as a civil rights leader who was brutally beaten in a Mississippi jail. But John Perkins’ life was much more than the bad things that happened to him. Today we’ll celebrate the life of this unstoppable force for the gospel. His life on earth is over, but his message continues. Don’t miss our tribute to Dr. John Perkins on Chris Fabry Live.
