AIDS (Discovery Series Booklet)

This crisis is a "cloud of fear and sorrow" that shrouds much of our world and calls out to us for a response.

Our world is shrinking by the day.  Global travel, a global economy, and advancing technology have drawn the world together more ever before.  But something else ties our world together—the AIDS crisis, which can no longer be viewed as "someone else's problem." This epidemic has grown to such a magnitude that it's now everyone's problem.   This booklet, written by Bill Crowder, seeks to open our hearts and minds to the history of the crisis, the human toll it is exacting, and a Christian response that mirrors the spirit of Christ.  May our Lord move us to respond with His compassion to this unprecedent global challenge.

Bill Crowder joined the Our Daily Bread Ministries staff in 2001 after more than 20 years in the pastorate stretching from West Virginia to southern California to west Michigan.

Bill is a contributing writer for the Our Daily Bread devotional and has written many Bible study booklets for ODBM’s Discovery Series. He has also published a number of books with ODB Publishing, the latest being Wisdom for our Worries and Gospel on the Mountains. Bill also serves as a co-host with Mart DeHaan, Elisa Morgan, and Daniel Ryan Day on the “Discover the Word” podcast and daily radio program, heard throughout the U.S. and on more than 20 stations in Canada. On the personal front, Bill is now semi-retired and, with his wife, Marlene, lives in North Carolina.
