Growing up in an era without the luxuries and convenience of cell phones, social media,
and entertainment streaming services would make the youth of today feel caught in the middle of an apocalypse. In, From North to South, Darryl Rodgers shares his journey of how he grew up the old fashioned way and passes on the wisdom learned from his life for all to embrace and enjoy. In his early years as a city kid from Brooklyn, NY, his daily routines could be synched with the television shows of that day. There weren't many options, so when a particular show would air, he knew that was a time-marker for him to move on to the next day's activity. Darryl shares stories from his visits to North Carolina to spend time with his grandparents. He walks us through his path to his first love, to his friendships and relationships with his family, and to the unfortunate incident that led to his family relocating to North Carolina. Darryl's life in North Carolina was extremely different from living in Brooklyn. He began working on a tobacco farm, and though his family and friends thought he would quit, he toughed it out and gave it his all. His determination was evident throughout his younger years into adulthood, as he faced multiple challenges and recognized God's hand of protection over his life early on. In Proverbs 13:20, the Bible teaches us to "Walk with the wise and become wise..." We invite you to take a walk with Darryl Rodgers and soak up all the wisdom nuggets that God has given him throughout the years so that you will have the opportunity to become wiser.
