The old man always sat in front of the five-and-dime, begging nickels, dimes & quarters from those who passed his way. The folks who saw him weren't sure how he got there most mornings because he didn't seem to have a soul who cared.
Saturday was the day the boy got to come downtown with a few friends and watch a black & white movie at the movie house on Main Street in Jackson, TN
The old man was ridiculed by most of the kids because he was so pitiful. "Hey Boy" the old man yelled on that first Saturday encounter. It scared the boy half to death. Because he knew the old man was talking to him.
Ivan Raley passed through small towns in Tennessee, South Carolina and the mission fields of Venezuela, Mexico, Belize and Africa on his journey to the ends of the earth. Ivan says he is forever on his way to the ends of the earth and his stories simply reflect that journey.
The story of how the old man picked Ivan out of a crowd is just one of hundreds that have unfolded on his journey; but perhaps none is more powerful, especially the way he tells it.
When you are able to communicate a story as powerfully as "the boy" can, people like me wonder how in the world he does it. The preacher boy is now Dr. Ivan N. Raley. On his way to the ends of the earth there have been several stints of overseas missionary duty to some of the poorest people on the face of the earth, and for the last 65 years he has been able to do the job he loves best: pastor a church. The stories are warmly & wonderfully woven into the sermons he shares. 1
Read more about the old man and what he wanted from the boy; and many more stories from Dr. Raley on his journey to the ends of the earth.

About the Author
It was a Friday morning in August 1953 when I knelt at the front on the sawdust floor at the open chapel at Camp Linden. I said to God in front of my friend and mentor, Jim Allen, "I will do whatever you want me to do, go through any door, and be whatever you want me to be." Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would spend my life in His service; serve as Vice President of the Tennessee Baptist Children's Home for 12 years; and as an old man, continue to pastor & preach (as I have for the last 65 years) and love each moment of the journey.
After completing my education in the public schools of Jackson and Union University, I entered the United States Navy and spent my first two years in school at San Diego. While serving in the Navy I also served as Associate Pastor of the Balboa Park Baptist Church.
Only God could open the doors that would lead me to be a guest of the congressional speaker at the National Day of Prayer in the Cannon Office Building in our nation's capital. And to be a guest Chaplain at the United States House of Representatives; as well as opening the session with prayer and spend time with two different Speakers of The House.
After completing my service in the Navy a church in Tennessee called me as their pastor and I returned to the Volunteer state, the place I have called home for the remainder of my life. I was privileged to pastor five churches in Tennessee with at least one in each grand division.
I was also called to serve in disaster relief programs in the United States; in Venezuela, Honduras, Guatemala and Belize.
In 1994 I spent five months with the Southern Baptist Mission Board in Belize; and in the summer of '94 I was assigned to the countries of Rwanda and The Congo during the Civil war in Rwanda.
It was in 1994 that Carole and I joined our blended families. We were called to Brentwood where I served as Vice President of the Tennessee Baptist Children's Home.
Following the disaster of 9/11 in 2001, I was called to serve as a relief Chaplin for the Fire Dept. of New York City an experience which marked me forever.
My first book, "Just a Moment" had totaled what I thought was the sum of "an old life". Yet God continues to bless and care for me. My wife and our blended family have added joy and length to my years.
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.
Isaiah 61:1

Terms of sale
Standard Business Terms and customer information
I. Standard business terms
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions of business apply for all contracts concluded with us as the supplier (preigu GmbH & Co. KG) via the websites AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions is explicitly rejected.
(2) A ‘consumer' in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities. The term ‘businessman' refers to every natural person, legal person or legally responsible partnership that concludes a legal transaction in pursuance of his/its independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The subject-matter of the contract is the selling of products .
(2) If an article is placed by us with AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the page on AbeBooks or ZVAB shall involve the binding offer to conclude a contract under the terms and conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract shall become effective via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The products intended for purchase are moved to the "shopping cart". You can select the "Shopping Cart" using the appropriate buttons on the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the required personal data and payment and shipping conditions, all order information is then displayed again on the order summary page.
Before submitting the order, you have the ability once more to review or change any information here (you may also use the "back" button on the Internet browser), or to cancel the purchase.
By clicking the "Buy now" button to submit the order, you declare your legally binding acceptance of the order which makes the contract effective.
(4) The execution of the order and the sending of all the details necessitated by the conclusion of the contract take place via e-mail, in a partially-automated manner. Consequently, you have to ensure that the e-mail address that you have deposited with us is the correct one, and that the receipt of the respective e-mails is guaranteed. In particular, you have to ensure that the respective e-mails are not blocked by a SPAM filter.
§ 3 Right of retention, reservation of proprietary rights
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if the situation in question involves claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until the purchase price is paid in full.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights are applicable.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to promptly check the product for completeness, visible defects and transport damage as soon as it is delivered, and promptly disclose your complaints to us and the shipping company in writing. Even if you do not comply with this request, it shall have no effect on your legal warranty claims.
(3) If a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed to be agreed if you were informed of the same by us before submitting the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed between the contracting parties.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of fulfilment, jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. This choice of law only applies to customers if it does not result in the revocation of the protection guaranteed by the mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the respective customer's usual place of residence is located (benefit-of-the-doubt principle).
(2) If you are not a consumer, but a businessman, a legal entity under public law or an institutional fund governed by public law, our place of business is the place of jurisdiction as well as the place of fulfilment for all services that follow from the business relationships that exist with us. The same condition applies to situations in which you are not associated with a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU, as well as situations in which the place of residence or the usual place of residence is not known at the time of commencement of proceedings. This has no bearing on the capacity to call upon the court associated with another place of jurisdiction.
