Dr. Charles A. Crane was raised on a cattle ranch in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. His father and mother, Claude and Jessie, were godly parents who raised him in a Bible-teaching church. After high school, his parents wanted to give him the ranch, but instead, he chose preaching as his life's work. At age 13, he studied the Book of Mormon and began leading LDS people to the real Jesus. This has been a lifelong interest. His ministries in Oregon and Utah were God blessed, but he wanted to be more adequately trained for ministry, so he went to seminary. These true stories are about his adventures and sometimes misadventures in church and seminary in Central Illinois. Charles A. Crane, B.S.L., M.A., C.P.E.C., M.Div., D.Min
