Memoirs of Walker L. Knight, who has served God in religious journalism with Baptists for five decades. As a Baptist journalist, he calmly articulated a message of missions ministry that focused on grace, compassion, inclusion, and reconciliation. When he saw racism and other troubling issues at play in Baptist life, he addressed them. Walker set a new standard for denominational journalism by repeatedly devoting entire editions of Home Missions magazine to specific issues that impacted the context for missions. Walker advanced civil rights without belligerence.
