11 MILLION SALVATIONS. 1800 CHURCHES. 400 ORPHANAGES. 17 RESURRECTONS. 3-TIME NOBEL PEACE PRIZE NOMINEE. From the palaces of Kings, to the slums of India, and to the belly of dungeon-like prisons. Kemper Crabb spreads salvation, love, and alleviation of suffering. It started with one suffering child. Armed Gurkhas would not let Kemper near the child for fear he would "alter Karma." The child died--frightened, alone, and unloved. Kemper cried out to God, "Why do You allow such suffering?" God gave Kemper a vision of the child sitting on Jesus" knee. But He gave the heartbroken missionary much more: a vision of how to relieve the spiritual and physical suffering of millions. Included: Kemper's Spiritual Warfare Training Handbook Kemper is very, very unique. He set out to help children and has to deal with far darker things of the black market and kids dying. Some have waited a lifetime to hear what Kemper Crabb is saying. His spiritual perspective of what s going on worldwide challenges us to believe in the power of Christ. -- Brett Rogers , University of Texas College Director for Young Life Ministries I've known Kemper Crabb for more than 70 years. Mother Teresa nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize and he's received the Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award from Delta Tau Delta. Kemper is doing a ton of good for others for eternity. -- Charles Mallery , Retired Exxon/Mobile Independent Consultant & lifelong witness of Kemper Crabb s life This is a must read if you are looking for something to stretch your faith to realize nothing is impossible for God. -- Bill Rieser , Celebrate Recovery Pastor at Real Life Church, Evangelist, & Author of Vertical Leap When it comes to Kemper Crabb, this surprisingly fit former coach with the southern twang, teasing manner and unassuming servant's persona who has some amazing stories to tell--remarkable stories of biblical proportions--one has to make a decision pretty quick. But as Kemper himself is prone to say, echoing the Apostle Paul, "If you don't believe me, believe me for my works sake." And echoing the words of Jesus, "You will know a tree by the fruit it bears."      So let's review our options in a logical, C.S. Lewis manner. Kemper Crabb is either: a) A liar b) A lunatic c) Who he says he is      Upon meeting Kemper, the middle option is removed within two minutes of hearing him speak. His is a razor-sharp mind that, like a master computer, retrieves data from his eight-plus decades of living, reciting snatches of poetry, describing names, faces, shared jokes and shared pain with precision.     But could he be a liar, a shrewd huckster tricking susceptible followers to hand over their life savings for false aims or convincing them to bestow honor for feats he's never accomplished? Again, the evidence to the contrary is immense: the newspaper clipping showing him walking with Mother Teresa, the photos of numerous churches and orphanages, all painted his trademark blue and gold, a faithful wife of six decades, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren who are upstanding, dedicated members of society who attest to the veracity of his claims, honorary degrees and awards from his alma mater, Sam Houston State University, for being a highly decorated and distinguished alum. Plus--here's the kicker--he never asks for money. His missionary excursions are primarily self-funded.      But wait. If we're approaching this logically and our only other option is to believe that Kemper Crabb is exactly who he says he is. * He has been guided from childhood by heavenly music * God's faithful angels protect him, bring him encouragement, guidance and take direction from him in recognition of Jesus, the Christ, who dwells within him. * He has been beaten, stoned, tortured, marked for murder, and imprisoned on numerous occasions. * He has held hundreds of dying children in his arms as they drew their last breath. * He laughed with and worked side-by-side with Mother Teresa who nominated him for a Nobel Peace Prize. * In his thirty years of outreach in India, Africa and China, he has led more than 11 million to salvation in the name of Jesus. * He has overseen and inaugurated thousands of community churches, schools, orphanages, and even several hospitals, leprosariums, and seminaries through his non-profit ministry, Servants of the King.      If we accept the above as fact, (which only scratches the surface of this amazing man's experiences) then we have a new paradigm to embrace. It's a worldview where a common Christian takes God at His word, does the works Christ did on Earth and, with constant peril to life and limb, uses the years he has been given to spread joy and light in the darkest of venues, living a life reminiscent of the prophet Elijah or the Apostle Paul--both the glories and the pain.      For his entire life, Kemper has kept a low profile and has tried to give the honor for his accomplishments to others in order to, as he says, "stay below the rada
