RADIO PROGRAM No. 439 - Gaining a New View

with contributions from Spruel M. Brown

SPEAKER: At this time of year we often think about the lives of great men, men such as Lincoln and Washington. These were certainly men of accomplishment, yet they were from very different backgrounds.

Such great figures can remind us all that everyone has greater abilities and capacities than we can imagine, and the understanding that man is spiritual, made in the image and likeness of God brings to light these hidden possibilities and can lift anyone to greater usefulness, health, and happiness. This is illustrated in the experiences presented each week on these programs. Today, for instance, you'll hear of the changes that occurred in the life of a man from Chicago, Illinois, Spruel M. Brown. Please tell us how these changes came about. Mr. Brown.

MR. BROWN: Well, that takes me back to the time that I was working for the railroad. I worked as a dining car waiter. One morning when the train came into the station, the superintendent of Dining Car Department came aboard to tell me to go to the hospital where my wife was under treatment for cancer at the time. When I arrived, they said my wife couldn't live over thirty days.
