Golden stories from a gem of a man

Reverend Joe Powlas is sometimes called "The Shepard of the Hills." For decades, he ministered to the congregations of four Presbyterian churches in the impoverished "criks" and "hollers" around Cow Creek, Kentucky. This book contains stories from the first four decades of his ministry. I have had the opportunity to meet and know Rev. Powlas from 1988 to 1992 through yearly youth mission trips, and was honored when he gave me a signed copy of this book. His warmth, humor and selfless generosity shines through in every anecdote, and no one who reads it can help but be touched and deeply moved.
