By the Hand of God

The memoirs of Dr. Wilbert Brown Jr. appear to be a hand painted portrait by the fingers of God. Dr. Brown's life proves beyond a shadow of doubt that Family, Faith and Education (three pillars of a strong community), along with hard work and dedication is the recipe for a fruitful life. It's my prayer that this writing will fall in the hands of men, women, boys and girls of all races and cultures for I believe it can serve to encourage all. Thank God for Dr. Wilbert Brown Jr. James A. Ervin, Pastor Iron Wheel Baptist Church Nacogdoches, Texas This narrative is a journey of religious and spiritual growth which is inspiring, thought provoking and meaningful in the truth of daily living. I recommend this book to anyone who may be struggling in earlier life and need encouragement. It is reflective and inclusive of stories of faith found, changed, or regained, and of struggle, suffering, and loss overcome through faith. Freddie L.

Austin State University Nacogdoches, Texas 75965 Your life story was an indication of what can be accomplished through determination, prayer and faith. Throughout your struggles including job discrimination or other disappointments, you never said it was unfair and neither did you blame it on others. I think you have given a recipe for success in the midst of struggles and I recommend this book to any one on the verge of giving up because of social or other issues.
