He Knoweth the Way That I Take: The Story of Bob Boltz

Heres a peek at his childhoodan absent father, an abusive stepfather, a mother who walked miles for cleaning jobs. A bully and a poor student. That was Bob Boltz, growing up in Wayne County, Ohio, in the early to mid-1900s. Statistics would have predicted the following for the next stages of Bobs life: in trouble with the law, angry and hard-hearted, continuing the cycle of a dysfunctional family. But not Bob. He became an adult who was known as a generous, hardworking, and faithful husband, father, and grandfather, all because Someone was watching. Someone cared. Someone called his name. But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold (Job 23:10).
