Bible Study - 75 - David Wilkerson - 23 Sermons
Country Preacher Cal To Reach Violent Gangs in NYC
Wilkerson served as pastor in small churches in Pennsylvania until he saw a photograph in Life magazine of several New York City teenagers charged with murder. Moved with compassion he was drawn to the city in February 1959.

It was then that he began his street ministry to what one writer called "desperate, bewildered, addicted, often violent youth." Ask a Christian in the west if they have read a David Wilkerson book, and many will say yes. The most well-known is The Cross and the Switchblade which has changed the face of evangelism in the western world. The story has been read by over 15 million people in some thirty languages since 1963. In 1969, a film of the same title was released. This story of how Wilkerson left his home at just 28 years old to evangelize the gangs of New York has inspired and encouraged Christians to step out in faith all across the world. He still preaches powerfully today from his Church in New York and indeed ministers regularly all across the world. David Wilkerson is a living history maker.
