Evangelist Lester Roloff shares his findings on the “way of health.” To keep one’s spiritual health is most important, but to keep one’s physical and mental health is also important to each of us. Most physical health advice comes with a spiritual application, and this little book is packed with practical advice on spiritual, mental, and physical health.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lester L. Roloff was born on June 28. 1914 in Dawson, Texas. He grew up there on a cotton farm. At the age of 12, he was saved, and at the age of 18, he surrendered to the Lord’s call to preach. Acting upon this sacred calling, he entered college, earning both his undergraduate Bible and Seminary degrees. While he was in college, he paid for his room and board by milking a Jersey cow he had brought from his parents’ farm.
During the next several years, he pastored several churches before the Lord called him to minister in full-time evangelism. He conducted evangelistic campaigns across the nation in churches, large tents, and city auditoriums. He preached the simple biblical message that Christ is the Answer!
On May 8, 1944, Brother Roloff began the Family Altar Program which greatly expanded his ministry of evangelism through radio broadcast. He described those pioneering years in radio as “trials, tears, temptations, and testing.” In founding this radio ministry, Brother Roloff said, “The message will always be the same – a message of Calvary, the virgin birth, the sinless life, the wonderful atonement, the bodily resurrection, and the glorious return of our Savior. I’ll keep back nothing, but declare the whole counsel of God.” Countless numbers have come to Christ as a result of listening to the program.
Brother Roloff’s entire life was invested in the preaching of the Gospel and ministering to people in trouble – those he compassionately described as “the least, the lost, and the lonely.” He ministered to inmates in jail, established homes for those struggling with addictions and also helped others start resident programs around the country. Many of these ministries are still helping people in trouble today. Brother Roloff had a heart for missions.
On November 2, 1982, Brother Roloff went home to be with the Lord while piloting his plane to evangelistic meetings.
