He Went a Little Farther

In 1986, Steve Campbell and his wife, Wanda, started a small street ministry in Columbus, Ohio's Short North District, a notorious crime area. They've spent more than thirty years serving the homeless and urban poor. In He Went a Little Farther, Campbell shares a collection of stories culled from this ministry that's now known as the Columbus Dream Center. But these are not Campbell s stories. They are God s stories. They are stories of prostitutes, gang members, and drug addicts, loved by God and transformed by him. These are the stories of what happens when God stretches us to go a little farther. Stories like Irv and The Girl at the Dumpster reveal how Jesus, who went a little farther for us, leads us to go a little farther for him. Written in devotional format, the twelve stories take place between Thanksgiving Day and Christmas during different years, but all within the holiday season. Each narrative contains a link to a video presentation of the story. He Went a Little Farther captures your heart and stretches you for the purpose of going a little farther.
