When Wayne Gordon and his wife started a Bible study for high
school kids in North Lawndale, Chicago, people warned them that a
white couple moving into a black neighborhood as a recipe for
disaster. That was twenty-five years ago. Today, what began as the
Gordons' seedling Bible study has become the Lawndale Community
Church. It has a staff of 150, has renovated more than 100 local
apartments, has helped more than 50 young people graduate from
college, runs a medical clinic that treated 50,000 patients in
1994, and has become a vital part of rebuilding an inner-city
neighborhood into a community of faith and hope. Real Hope in
Chicago is Wayne Gordon's inspiring account of how people, white
and black, rich and poor, old and young, worked together to
transform a decaying neighborhood into a place where love is lived
out in practical and miraculous ways. It offers an exciting model
for interracial cooperation, urban-suburban church partnering--and
real hope for the inner cities of our nation.
