“From Crack to Clergy: Provoking Thoughts”
“From Crack to Clergy: Provoking Thoughts “ is a book about a very difficult journey through life. Take the journey with Eric as he grows up in the South with a severe stutter—facing each day with inner courage while poverty robs him, fears chase him, people deny him, racism smothers him, and drugs finally control him. Readers feel the pain and triumph as Eric overcomes bad starts, fears, weaknesses, and addictions. Eventually, a different journey begins for Eric, and the readers, when Faith saves him
