From Prison To Pulpit
This verse sums up my life to the age of 22, when Jesus Christ saved me by His grace, From the time I was a small boy until I was 18, I did just about anything I wanted to do, I was very selfish, ungrateful, disobedient and rebellious, By the time I turned 18, I had been in and out of court and was a heavy drinker. In May of 1970, I was arrested for breaking & entering. In July, I began serving a 1 to 15 year sentence at the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio, a maximum security prison. I was released on parole one year later. After my release, I returned to drinking and got involved with drugs. In July of 1972, while on parole, I was arrested again for breaking & entering. I was sentenced to the Ohio State Penitentiary, in Columbus, Ohio, for 1 to 15 years. While in prison, I heard the gospel. On January 15, 1974, I repented and confessed my sin, and trusted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. I praise God for His wonderful saving grace.
