Narrated by: Virtual Voice

On a pre-Christmas Sunday morning in 1973, despite a driving snowstorm, 23, 024 persons attended Sunday School at First Baptist Church, Hammond, Indiana—a record believed never achieved since the New Testament church began. Moreover, this same church, already holder of the title of “The World’s Largest Sunday School,” attained average attendance for the fall and winter months of 13,000. What is the story behind this inspiring spiritual success? What secret—if any—does the dynamic pastor, Dr. Jack Hyles, possess? How has he—as Christian Life Magazine states—“injected the old-fashioned Gospel into an expressway society?” In this heart-warming book, Dr. Elmer L. Towns takes you through a normal Sunday at this amazing church, then shares with you the story of Jack Hyles, the First Baptist Church of Hammond, and the secrets of success that have made this epochal achievement possible. Read it. Your own church will never be the same again—for the better!
