Too Small to Ignore

Most of Wess Stafford's messages about how society needs to take better care of children and the poor will be familiar to listeners. When he is explaining the principles behind his beliefs and the actions he recommends, he's predictable. Only his storytelling cadences bring interest to his message. He sounds folksy and concerned, and he emphasizes key points through both volume and pauses. What sets this account apart is when Stafford tells stories of his experiences in Africa as the child of Christian missionaries. Some are brutal, even shocking; others are warm and touching. Listen to these stories. You'll understand the hearts behind the Compassion International organization. G.T.B. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
