Called to Be Friends, Called to Serve
ByPublisher Description
In an age defined by hyper-polarization comes a story of an unlikely and surprising friendship between two friends with radically different backgrounds and histories who find each other because they were found by God. Called to Be Friends, Called to Serve commemorates the never-before-told friendship between theologian and advocate John M. Perkins and philanthropist Howard F. Ahmanson Jr. Their story is a journey of hope through differences, tracing Perkins’s and Ahmanson’s distinct and overlapping biographies, vocation, leadership, and the significance of their emerging friendship for the good of others.
