Newman "Soapy" Dollar is a full-blooded Apache Indian, born out of wedlock to a 19-year-old girl who left the Mescalero Reservation in southern New Mexico to give birth to the child in Albuquerque on June 14, 1949. The infant was abandoned at birth (or possible sold) and taken in by a woman named Princess Babe Hawk, a fortune-teller and magician's assistant. She named the child after her third husband, Leon Frank Dollar, from whom she was already separated. The child never knew Leon or his real father. A doctor signed a birth certificate naming Babe and Leon as the parents. Most of the other information on the certificate was also false.Newman was passed to about sixteen families before he was six years old. On June 1, 1955, he was sent to Cal Farley's Boys Ranch, a home for homeless and delinquent boys on the site of Old Tascosa, a cowboy ghost town near Amarillo, Texas. It was also on that day that Newman became "Soapy". Arriving shortly before lunch, the youngster was told to wash his face and hands before eating, but in his nervousness and haste, he left soap suds in his ears and on his neck. The staff and other children called him "Soapy", and the nickname stuck to this day.
Babe Hawk died in an auto accident in 1958, and Boys Ranch became Soapy's only home. By that time, though, he had adapted well to the security, the stability, and the many opportunities that Ranch life offered. Just a few months before Babe Hawk's death, Ranch Chaplain Wayne Rohrs presented the simple Gospel message to the boys, and Soapy had responded with faith, praying and surrendering his life to Jesus Christ. The child's newfound relationship with God comforted him in the loss of his mother (he only learned years later that Babe Hawk had not been his real birth mother), and it became the primary relationship of his life. Through his years at Boys Ranch, Soapy shared his faith with hundreds of other troubled, disadvantaged young men and led many to trust Christ as their Saviour, too. From his perilous birth circumstances and troubled childhood, God honored the name first chosen for that baby born on the streets of Albuquerque. He had grown up to become a New Man in ChristIn 1958, the Boys Ranch Chapel program allowed boys to enroll in an annual course offered by the Bible Memory Association. Soapy completed both the youth and adult plans by the time he graduated from Boys Ranch in 1967. Along with the rest of the Chapel ministries (choirs, Bible games, camps, etc.), memorizing and reciting scripture had perhaps the most profound, long-term effect on his life. Soapy preached his first sermon around age 12 (a special shelf in the pulpit allowed youngsters to reach the microphone and pray, read scripture, sing, and preach during the worship services) and was often asked to sing solos as well as with choirs and ensembles. At the same time, though, the young Indian boy excelled in both school and athletics. He was valedictorian of his graduating class, three-time All-Around Rodeo Champion (bulls, bare-back broncs, trick riding and clowning), and 1967 Athlete of the Year (football, basketball, and baseball). Popular among the other 350 boys and the ranch staff, Soapy served two years as President of the Student Council.During college at West Texas State University, Soapy worked for a large wholesale company and served as a youth evangelist with area churches. After graduating from college with a degree in mathematics, Soapy met Suzanne Ward at a church pot luck lunch. Following an 18-month courtship, they were married in September of 1972. Suzanne had graduated with honors from Texas Tech with a B.A. degree in Speech and Drama, then she had joined the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ as a single woman. The couple decided to continue with Campus Crusade after marriage. For 35 years now, they have invested their lives in helping people across America and around the world find and experience God's love and forgiveness in Jesus Christ. They lived eight years in Europe and continue to travel widely - ministering in over 30 countries of the world, most recently in Ukraine, India, China, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan. Both speak Spanish, and both sing. Suzanne studied and plays the piano, and Soapy has learned to play the piano, guitar, drums, and bass.
For fifteen years, Soapy has been a popular radio talk show host on station KSLR (AM-630) in America's ninth largest city, San Antonio, TX.
Two weeks after "9/11" in 2001, he launched a new program called "The Bible Live", dedicated to reading the scriptures into hearts and homes across America. At 8p.m.-9p.m. each weeknight, listeners hear a 15 to 20-minute dramatic reading from the Bible. All 66 books, from Genesis to Revelation, are heard every year.

October 7, 2007 Show

October 7, 2007 Our special guest is singer songwriter, Wayne Watson! This is from his MySpace page: "WAYNE WATSON is wearing this season of his creative life with the ease of a favorite well-worn leather jacketrelaxed and comfortable. The man whose voice and songs helped define an entire genre of Christian music throughout the 80s and 90s is re-connecting with his music with a new passion seemingly born at the intersection of age and wisdom.""The songwriter known for his remarkable depth and relevancy has just brushed past the milestone marker of half a centurymost of it shared intimately on the trail with God and his music. Much of the journey has been chronicled within the library of songs contained on more than two dozen album projects since his memorable breakthrough album Working In The Final Hour caught the imagination of an entire generation of Christian music listeners and radio with its release in 1980. To say his vocal styling and lyrics of open, honest communication of Gods presence in every day life circumstances helped lay the foundation on which todays contemporary Christian music is built would in no way be an overstatement."
Wayne share with us from the heart about his Father's battle with cancer, you will be encouraged!
