Bill Bright: Dare to Be Different

by Kim Twitchell

There were seven kids in the Bright family so every morning fourteen tackety boots would march off down the lane to the one-roomed school house and then later in the afternoon the same scruffy boots would meander back again. At the back of the group a young boy would dawdle-curious,quiet and a little shy... his name was Bill.
Few would have thought that this scruffy rancher's son would grow up to be a smart, confident, well spoken young gentleman...yet alone that he would head up one of the biggest missions that America, or the world has over known.
Campus Crusade, though, was just the beginning. Soon there were missions to students, the military, athletes - even Hollywood actors. Then Bill was involved in making a film himself, about the one whom he loved above all else, Jesus.
