مؤلف: Larry Malcolm

Born in 1952 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, he went to Lowell Elementary and Junior High. He graduated from Tulsa Central High School, Tulsa Junior College, and Langston University. He has spent thirty-three years in sales. Billboard and yellow pages advertising dominated most of those years. He was a reporter as a hobby for the Tulsa Speedway News and later had a weekly column known as “The Steering Column.” After seven weeks of racing cars at Tulsa Speedway in 1972, Uncle Sam sent Larry a “Greetings” letter, and he was drafted into the United States Army. After a two-year stint, mostly in Hawaii, Larry returned to racing. A new division was started just two months after his honorable discharge. The Street Stock division was a good fit, and he finished fourth place out of one hundred eighteen entries that season. He was mathematically in contention for the championship into the final race of the season. Being raised a Baptist taught Larry the importance of salvation. In 1975, a radio preacher, R. W. Schambach, got his attention, and he wasn’t Baptist. He was Pentecostal. This was the perfect blend for Larry’s faith. Schambach did not put a limit on God, and Larry liked that about him. So today Larry attends an Assembly of God Church that understands that the real church is not a building. The real church is the Body of Christ that acquires members as their names are written into the Book of Life.
