April 4, 1975

The story is old but the perspective is updated and brought into sharp focus by the film The Gospel Road to be shown on Sunday, April 6 at Tracy Baptist Church. The showing will begin at 7 p.m. The Gospel Road, distributed by World Wide Pictures, was conceived and produced by Johnny Cash and his wife, June Carter Cash, whose desire was to tell the story of Jesus Christ in a realistic and meaningful way.
