Wear Your Collar

From 1969 to 1973, the church encountered new subcultures of our society. A particular one that emerged was outlaw motorcycle gangs. Wear Your Collar is about how a minister and his congregation sought to get involved with and touch the lives of many of those gang members in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. The intent of the book is to provide a biblical imperative for the church to venture out into unique and different mission fields. The basic subject of the book is how Reverend Gene Skipworth became involved with the gangs, how it affected the church he served, what effect it had on his family, the experiences he encountered, the lives and personalities of individual gang members, and the results of that ministry. Whether a person is involved in the church or not, Wear Your Collar will have an appeal to the reader due to the uncommon nature of the book.
