Street Stories - A Ringside Seat To Over 4 Decades Of Taking Jesus To The Streets Of The World

Foreword #2

My friends, Bobby and Dot Chance, really bug me.

We met in the mid 1970’s when Bobby and I were members of a Christian rock band touring the U.S. and Canada sharing our faith through music. When that ministry concluded, the Chances returned to their home state of Texas and began business careers. But a few years later, all that changed when they sensed God calling them to take the gospel to the streets. So, they quit their jobs, relocated their family to inner city Los Angeles, and have been extending the love of Jesus to the homeless, addicted, trafficked, and forgotten in the heartless urban centers of the world ever since. Street Stories is a glimpse into their remarkable journey of faith, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. But just a word of warning: You may find this account of what God has done and continues to do through their surrendered lives disturbing. Every time I try to settle into the comfortable suburban fortress insulating me from all this world’s pain, the image of the Chances running toward it deeply troubles me…but in a very good way.
