The Candy Bar by Lytle Thomas
The Candy Bar is at the heart of The Dawn of Nashville Inner City Ministry. In this book, you will read the story of Lytle Thomas's wife, Sandra, and a kind man named Frank Vester. Sandra's respect for "Frankie Doodle-Doo" broad-brushed to people of every race. Years later, this respect led to Sandra inviting several children to Vacation Bible School. One good thing led to another, and Nashville Inner City Ministry was born.
Beloved by many, Lytle Thomas has a unique storytelling ability, which makes The Candy Bar: The Dawn of Nashville Inner City Ministry an easy read and a true treasure. Open the book, read this special story, and feel the dawn of God's love in your heart.
