From Peanut Farmer to President
When Jimmy Carter was a boy, he listened to his parents talk about local politics and watched them live out their Baptist faith in the community. From the fields of his family farm to traveling the world negotiating peace talks, God guided every step of Jimmy’s journey. His unwavering devotion to peace and faith helped him navigate the political waters of the governorship and presidency. This revised edition includes updates on President Carter’s continuing work on human rights and celebrates 30 years of Habitat of Humanity, with focus on the Jimmy and Roslyn Carter work projects in Haiti and more.
