Follow the Path He Set For You

The 1930s were a different time from the 1920s. The Great Depression hit and as time passed many people lost their jobs, homes and land. Some families and individuals "rode the rails" looking for work. A Dust Bowl hit and blew much of the soil across the country. People did what they had to in order to survive. The Brown family was a little better off because of huge gardens they all grew and inheritance from a few family members. You'll find other changes in the lives of Ban, Thomas, Jeff, Reggie, Ruth, and Jon. In fact, most of the family faced chances - bad and good. Ban became the pastor of the local church they all attended and reached out to help needy people. He also had to face preaching his first funeral. Jeff and Melody had twins and the family ended up with many grandchildren. Two of the grandsons became real troublemakers. Wait to see what happened to them! Hitler came to power and World War II began with the U.S. entering December 8, 1941. Several grandchildren were drafted or enlisted.
