1. CD Brooks – The Handwriting on the Wall (1978)
From the Breath of Life Crusade in 1978.
The former speaker of the Breath of Life television ministry, Brooks is well known among
Seventh-day Adventists as an evangelist. His sermons are legendary and his tapes widely
distributed. He held his first campaign in the early 1950s, while a pastor in Columbus, Ohio.
After going on to be senior pastor of the Glenville Church in Cleveland, where he also held
campaigns, Brooks became a full-time evangelist for the Columbia Union Conference. In the
summer of 1964 he led a major campaign in a large tent in Philadelphia during the “long, hot
summer” of urban rioting, defied a plea from the mayor to shut down and still baptized nearly
300 people. He was elected an associate secretary of the General Conference Ministerial
Association and from that platform has fearlessly preached the Adventist message around the
globe. There are a number of Breath of Life congregations, church plants resulting from
evangelism campaigns conducted by Brooks.
