The Cross and the Switchblade

The dramatic and inspiring true story of a small town minister called to help inner city kids everyone else believed were beyond hope... David Wilkerson was just a young preacher in the Pennsylvania hills when he was stunned by a new calling from God: go to New York City to speak to seven young gang members on trial for murder. But something much greater was to come. Once in New York, David was inspired to stay for a lifetime of helping troubled teenagers get free of drugs and crime. With the word of God in his ears, he founded an inner-city ministry still known as the Teen Challenge to change their paths and alter thousands of lives forever.

Teen Challenge (Organization)

"Go to New York City and help those boys." When David Wilkerson heard those words in his heart late one night as he glanced at a picture in Life magazine, he was dumbfounded. The boys in question were members of a violent gang and on trial for murder. He was a country preacher settled comfortably in a little mountain church in Pennsylvania. What could God possibly expect him to accomplish--in New York City, of all places? But the thought would not let him go--and his life and the lives of countless despairing teens were changed forever on account of it. This is the story of the founding of Teen Challenge, an inner-city ministry that today maintains residential and crisis counseling centers around the globe. But even more, it is a story of how the most unlikely people can hear--and follow--God's call to do the impossible.--From publisher description.

So when tragedy strikes, they are caught ill-prepared to face their circumstances. David Wilkerson has confronted countless challenges and hardships and has met many others with similar experiences.

Triumph Through Tragedy

Sipping Saints

In 1973 David Wilkerson had an apocalyptic vision of the future of America and its eventual fall. Then in the 1980s he prophesied that America is Babylon the Great whore of Revelation that will be destroyed in a nuclear holocaust. These two powerful books are now back in print together for the first time.

The VISION and Set the Trumpet to Thy Mouth

Why do people commit suicide? David Wilkerson believes it is because their search for meaning has left them empty. Wilkerson shows how to fill the void by pointing the way to the peace and assurance that are found in the promises of God.

Suicide

Secure. Is that how you feel when you think about the future? Most of us could honestly answer, "No." How then do we obey Matthew6:25-34 where Christ tells us to not worry about tomorrow? Balancing this kind of faith with practical wisdom is challenging. Visionary church planter and evangelist David Wilkerson worked to see God-fearing people flourish in this area, and this book is the product of his heart and life-long labors. He reminds us that we have the responsibility to be good stewards of our resources without panic and fearfulness in the face of economic hardship. Security is only possible if we seek a closer relationship with our Father who graciously provides for his children and who gives us the Spirit of peace and wisdom.
