Author Description

The HAPPIEST PEOPLE ON EARTH is the story of Demos Shakarian, the son of an Armenian immigrant who came to America to escape the Turkish pogroms which threatened their small village. In the states, their faith flourished and the family grew, even in the hard times. All his life, Demos wondered about his destiny. Not a gifted speaker, he discovered his gift of "helps" and he and his wife sponsored many evangelists and meetings in southern California. Despite his commercial success in the dairy and grain business, though, he often wondered what God had planned for his life. Faithfulness and patience paid off as, step by step, the Lord led him through the founding and expansion of the Full Gospel Businessman's Fellowship International - the largest group of its kind in the world. Sharing testimonies and real life encounters with the power of God, businessmen from around the world encourage, support and reach out to people for the sake of the gospel. This is an insightful, powerful book as you walk through the years with Demos and his faith.
