Jack Hamilton and Bob Cook
In 1946, Jack Hamilton started High School Bible clubs to pursue a more personal form of discipleship than that found at the YFC rallies. Dr. Cook said, “The rally idea is sound, but in most places the rally is just the show window. Let’s get something on the counters the rest of the week.” By 1952, YFC clubs passed the 1000 mark. Bible clubs had become for the 1950’s what the Saturday night rallies had been in the 1940’s.
