About this listen
Flying with the Birds is an inspiring memoir chronicling the extraordinary life of Reverend Joe Williams the last original member of the iconic gospel group, The Dixie Hummingbirds. From a childhood in North Philadelphia marked by poverty and resilience, to becoming a Marine, gospel singer, and spiritual leader, Rev. Joe’s journey is a powerful testament to purpose, perseverance, and faith.
Through richly detailed stories and unforgettable moments singing on national stages, mentoring incarcerated men, founding a church, and navigating racial barriers, this book offers listeners a front-row seat to a life devoted to service, music, and community. Authored by Dr. Lynn Peterson, the memoir is both a personal tribute and a historical account of gospel music’s impact and the enduring legacy of a man who chose purpose over fame.
