Review Quotes

"A policeman working undercover among hardened criminals and managing to look just as tough;

A poet authoring classic lyrics for a world-famous love song;

A counselor who uplifts the fallen only to lower them into the arms of their Saviour:

"That's my brother!"

-Don Richardson, author of Peace Child

"The pen was his gun-not his police holster-and he was a deadly shot. These beautiful lyrics pouring out of him-it was almost like they came through him, not from him."

-David Foster, Canadian musician and composer
