About the Book

In an uplifting memoir, the founder of Feed The Children tells the story of his organization and its remarkable, life-affirming work, both here and abroad. In 1979, Larry Jones was ministering in Haiti, where he was approached by a young boy who hadn't eaten all day. The child asked for a nickel to buy a roll. Recalling the wheat surplus back home in Oklahoma, Jones soon started Feed The Children, initially a wheat-exporting outreach that grew into one of the world's largest and most respected charities. Year after year, it efficiently distributes food and other essentials to impoverished families throughout the United States and much of the rest of the world. In Keep Walking, Jones describes his journey from a childhood as the son of two barbers in America's heartland to a career that takes him to war-torn countries and areas devastated by natural disasters--as well as into the halls of Congress and the offices of foreign governments to solicit support and funding. Rich in moving stories, Keep Walking offers vivid insights into the faith that moved Jones to do God's work and shows readers that they, too, can make a difference.

Review :
Advance Praise for "Keep Walking: " "Larry Jones is a man on a mission. In "Keep Walking" he shares the passion that drives him, the faith that sustains him, and the dream of a world without hungry children that motivates him. I have seen firsthand Larry Jones's work, and he has something to say that we all need to hear." --Bishop T.D. Jakes "Larry Jones has more stars in his crown than most people. He has worked tirelessly for years to help children around the world who would go hungry without his efforts and Feed The Children. He has been a huge inspiration to me. He inspires me to work harder to help more people." --Reba McEntire "Larry Jones touches your heart and soul with the things that touch the heart and soul of God. He is a master storyteller, a consummate humanitarian, a compellingly insightful evangelist trying to make the world work for the people that it doesn't work for. He is friend to all and beloved by those he serves who will never know him. Read this book and you will have an expanded soul too." --Mark Victor Hansen Co-creator, #1 "New York Times" bestselling series "Chicken Soup for the Soul" (R) Co-author, "Cracking the Millionaire Code "and" The One Minute Millionaire " ""Keep Walking" is a must-read for anyone who ever thought humanitarian work is easy. Larry Jones has been stranded 10,000 miles from home while hustling food to the starving on both sides of warring enemy lines. He and Feed The Children have been the first to arrive and the last to leave the world's most horrific natural disasters and acts of terrorism. Our nation is looking for a hero. It need not look beyond Larry Jones." --Lee Iacocca "It has beenmy privilege to pass out baby food and diapers with Feed The Children to people who were so wonderful and very grateful. I respect and admire Larry and Frances, and this book is enlightening, interesting, inspiring, and very important to the world. God has found great servants in these wonderful people, and must be truly pleased that they have dedicated their lives to doing 'His' work." --Barbara MandrellMany celebrity athletes and I have often helped Larry Jones organize and participate in mass feedings, from 10,000 people at Christmastime in Harlem to more than 125,000 children receiving daily meals in Africa. Larry's efforts provide food for the body. Reading how it all came about and stays together is food for the soul. This is one of those riveting stories about one man that will make virtually anyone a better person for having read it." --Billy Hunter Executive Director, National Basketball Players Association "To have a horrible tornado hit my hometown meant Feed The Children trucks were on the way. Larry Jones lives a life of giving like no other man I've ever seen. Reading about his past gives direction to all of our futures." --Duane Allen Oak Ridge Boys Advance Praise for "Keep Walking: " "Larry Jones is a man on a mission.
