Wallace Buckle was born in Forteau, Labrador, Canada, into a poor fishing family. He left home at 16 and got a job in Seven Islands (Sept-Îles), Quebec, at 80 cents an hour. That’s where this recording, made in New Jersey, USA, in 1984, begins. He began gambling and drinking and living it up in the world. However, a near scrape with death, and the tragic loss of a friend and a work colleague led Wallace to return home. At that time the MGM Gospel Boat had reached his home community with the gospel. Wallace went to hear this “new religion” preached by George Campbell. Wallace was so mad at being told he was on the way to hell that he took the door of the meeting house off its hinges on the way out! But God worked in his heart and he purchased a Bible only to find out what Mr Campbell was preaching was true. Listen to find out how Wallace was saved.

Michael Penfold explains the difference between “old worship” and “new worship”. The Lord Jesus taught the woman at the well in John Ch 4 that the way God’s people worshipped in the old times was changing. Worship today must be “in spirit” and “in truth”, but the tendency is often to revert to the forms of the past. Reading: John 4:19-24.
