Rent It Ain't But One: My Extraordinary Life Story

Synopsis

Growing up in the shadow of his namesake, Rev. Jasper Williams Sr., young Jasper had big shoes to fill. He did so for the first time at the age of 7, preaching a sermon and feeling the exhilaration of God's call on his life and "the realization that I could be the man my Daddy had repeatedly told me I would be when I grew up... just like him!"

Now, nearly 70 years later, Williams looks back on his life and ministry, recounting the challenges of taking the reins of leadership at Salem Bible Church at the tender age of 20, growing and shepherding the congregation and rising in leadership and influence in the Atlanta community and across the country.

Recent years have seen Williams emerge as a statesman in the African American community, speaking boldly and advocating for the restoration of the black family. Readers will be challenged and inspired as Williams offers insights gained from decades of faithful service.

With transparency and humor, Williams recalls the perils and loneliness of ministry, as well as the sheer joy of preaching--something that has earned him the title "Prince of Preachers."
