    What a powerful story, I am grateful for this man and his wife's determination, Love for God and Faith, to keep going no matter what the cost. Thank you for posting this very important part of the AA history. Peace and Blessings.

      Wow! I am so thrilled. I was raised in AME Church and I was ordained in as an evangelist at the age of 11, I remember I once walked more than 105km from my home district to another district in my tender age just to attend an annual conference. Today have learnt much more from this video which I couldn't in my tenderly age.

    I can also agree wit the below comments on this figure. Since this is one of those characters in history you hardly ever hear about. Being a minority group in the past isn't great nor pretty.

      1. Probably because by the time he hit his teens( ie 14-15) he was already a devout Methodist, and would have wanted to read the Bible he was already familiar with.
      3. Self education was common during the Revolutionary War Era, as no less than Ben Franklin was self taught.
