Page "Larry Norman" Paragraph 21

After Norman moved to Los Angeles in 1968, he " spent time sharing the gospel on the streets of Los Angeles ", especially along Hollywood Boulevard.

Norman described his street witnessing: " When I left my band in 1968 and moved to Los Angeles, I didn't feel awkward about witnessing anymore – I felt directed.

I chose my ground and worked my beat.

I walked up and down Hollywood Boulevard several times a day ; at first alone, then with Richard Gerstle and later Sarah Finch, witnessing to businessmen and hippies, and to whomever the Spirit led me.

I spent all of my Capitol Records ' royalties starting a halfway house and buying clothes and food for new converts.

Each Friday and Saturday I borrowed cars and drove almost 150 miles to pick up certain kids and take them to a church in a home in Santa Ana.

Our meetings usually lasted five hours on Friday and eight hours on Sunday.
