FOREWORD 

            This book is a fascinating story of an unfortunate boy who lived in the shadows and was completely throttled by sin. It is the story of how the redeeming power of Christ can lift one from the “shades of night” to spiritual victory. It is a story of spiritual liberation told by the person who was liberated.

            Freddie Gage uses the language of the young people with whom he lived until the time of his new birth, and to whom he now ministers. The language and some of the story may be criticized by some, but this story of redemption is meant to bring hope to the unfortunate and misguided, and had to be told in their language to communicate. The author pulls back the curtain and lets us look at a raw, hard way of life that is as real as the mud puddle, the cloud or the hurricane. The story is well-done and holds out great hope for those in the grip of fleshly lust.
