The Cross and the Switchblade
Author: David Wilkerson
“Go to New York City and help those boys.”
David Wilkerson was taken aback when he heard God speak those words to him late one night as he stared at a picture of seven young gang members on trial for murder. He was simply a country preacher at a small church in Pennsylvania. What impact could he possibly make–especially in New York City?
This captivating story describes the man who obeyed God’s summons to reach out to the least of these. It also is the story of how God can use anyone to save those we may think are beyond saving.

Heavenly Man
Authors: Brother Yun and Paul Hattaway
This is the gripping story of how God took a young, half-starved boy from a poor village in Henan province and placed him on the front line for Jesus, in the face of impossible odds. Instead of focusing on the many miracles or experiences of suffering, Yun turns his gaze to and centers his story on the character and beauty of Jesus. This dramatic autobiography of one of China’s dedicated, courageous, and intensely persecuted house church leaders is a watershed book that will turn the reader to prayer and praise.
