Yes! I forgot the name but that is it. I read that book twice.
Our church library had two comic books, Tom Landry and The Dallas Cowboys and The Cross and The Switchblade. That led me to read Run Baby Run by Nicky Cruz. At that age the message I took from it was Christianity could be for anybody, not just the sanitized robots I mostly witnessed in church. I was in some kind of trouble from my first memory on so it was an important lesson. David Wilkerson and Nicky Cruz are names I’ll never forget.
