Publisher Description: "Some people like to watch things happen; I like to make things happen." So went the motto of Bishop Hardy Lee Coleman, Sr, and demonstrated this point again and again. Now come and be inspired as you see his remarkable journey with God. On May 20, 1922, when Hardy Lee Coleman was born in a log cabin on a farm, on a dirt road, in Benton County, Mississippi, few people realized the significance of the moment. But God did He had special plans for this man, who would prove to be one-of-a-kind. Yet it would take several years before the plans would unfold. In the meantime, Hardy had to endure rigorous fieldwork as a sharecropper's son, abandonment by his own father at 12 years of age, and the dishonor which went with being black in a segregated rural south. Yet this remarkable young man overcame all of these challenges as he moved into his destiny ordained by God. At the time of his death at 93 years of age, Bishop Coleman led congregations scattered around north Mississippi, as well as Tennessee, Illinois, and Georgia. He led thousands to Jesus and mentored hundreds of ministry leaders. Come and see what God can do with a man whose life is totally His. |
