Author Description

In "Only God Knows," the first half of his captivating autobiography, Edd Brown told the story of his tough start in life - born on the cusp of the Great Depression (the "worst hard time") and labeled "the runt" by a grandfather who said the boy would never amount to much. Despite his challenging beginnings, Edd grew up with a fiery determination to make something of himself. He enlisted in the Navy during World War II and later became a successful pastor and men's ministry executive serving Southern Baptists in California. Now, in "To the Ends of the Earth," the author invites readers to join him and Flo - his beloved wife and faithful partner in ministry - as they travel to thirty-two countries in their so-called "retirement" years, obeying God's call to missions and serving the thousands of individuals they encounter along the way. "Our life has been a series of steps that God, in His wisdom, has used to prepare us for our expanded lives of ministry to people in many different countries," says Edd. "Neither Flo nor I had any idea that our earlier experiences were preparation for this new period in which we are privileged to live." "To the Ends of the Earth" is a vibrant and appealing account of Edd and Flo Brown's life of ministry in their golden years and is a sure-footed follow-up to Only God Knows.
