The Truth About David Wilkerson: Life & Ministry; Pentecostal Upbringing

Evangelist David Wilkerson gained fame as the preacher who won countless gang members to Jesus and established the most successful drug recovery program Teen Challenge. His book The Cross and the Switchblade was a bestseller that was made into a movie, and he followed it up in 1973 with the controversial book The Vision. In this video I give you a glimpse into the man behind the ministry.

I'm Rod Saunders, founder of Jew and Greek. I’m a musician, web developer, and a student of philosophy and economics. I recently published my first book on Amazon entitled Defending the Faith: Word of Faith Apologetics. It’s a response to the numerous charges against and misrepresentations of the Word of Faith movement and theology. I also have a CD of original music on CD Baby entitled Gates of Pearl. “Jew and Greek” is a good name because the two civilizations that influenced Western civilization the most were those of the Judeo-Christian and Greek worlds. From the Jews we received our values and a monotheistic theology, and from the Greeks we got philosophy which brought us science, sports, the arts, democracy, and economics. As a result I discuss all of the above in this blog and in my videos.
