One call.
One walk.  One step.
 
People dream,
people envision, and people hope. However, few have followed through.
 
Pressed by
the pain of homes in America unraveling due to abuse, addictions, anger,
anxiety, and apathy, Dr. Jim Buckley answered
God’s one call to take one walk,
one step at a time, across America:  a walk to live out a
message for Jesus; a walk
of 3,131 miles long over 6 months.
 
Jim Buckley walked across America with Glenda,
his wife of 47 years, driving their
22-foot
RV with this message:
 
               Homes in
America are in need of Jesus!
 
Compiled in
this book is the story of one man, one husband, one father, one grandfather,
one professor, and one pastor who heard God’s
call and responded to walk across America,
communicating a message of hope in
Jesus Christ for homes across America.
 
You will
be inspired, encouraged, and brought to tears in this real story across
the beautiful states of America. Will you be
inspired to answer your call?
 
What is your
Walk Across America? What are you putting
off?  What is burning
in your soul to
accomplish? Answer the “one call” just as this 66-year-old man did.
 
It’s never too late to take your “one” step!
