Amazing Grace is Jonathan Kozol’s classic book on life and death in the South Bronx—the poorest urban neighborhood of the United States. He brings us into overcrowded schools, dysfunctional hospitals, and rat-infested homes where families have been ravaged by depression and anxiety, drug-related violence, and the spread of AIDS. But he also introduces us to devoted and unselfish teachers, dedicated ministers, and—at the heart and center of the book—courageous and delightful children. The children we come to meet through the friendships they have formed with Jonathan defy the stereotypes of urban youth too frequently presented by the media. Tender, generous, and often religiously devout, they speak with eloquence and honesty about the poverty and racial isolation that have wounded but not hardened them. Amidst all of the despair, it is the very young whose luminous capacity for love and transcendent sense of faith in human decency give reason for hope.

The relationship between God and man hinges on faith—the unseen evidence that eludes countless souls. That’s why, throughout the ages, God has called men to proclaim His gospel message with an anointing, a boldness, and a fire that ignites the measure of faith in every human heart. At the age of eight, God called Jimmy Lee Swaggart for the purpose of world evangelism. In the tiny town of Ferriday, Louisiana, his Spirit-filled grandmother told him, “Jimmy, you will see a harvest of souls such as the world has never seen before.” Indeed, he did see it, and so did we. But before God placed Jimmy Swaggart before the masses, He first raised him up to preach—on the streets of Louisiana, inside rural churches, into a radio mic, and, eventually, in front of a television camera. Today, the iconic evangelist preaches to the largest audience of his 62-year ministry—nearly 2 billion people—and his revelatory message is not only one of salvation, but also sanctification through Jesus Christ and Him crucified. In his own words, and in his own way, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart now tells his personal story of God’s amazing grace.

Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring two-pence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it. C. S. Lewis This is the true story of Raymond D. Martin, an authentic original. It is an account of a life lived with single-minded purpose; a testimony to the wonderful grace of Jesus. From his childhood in Queens, to his dramatic conversion, and throughout his 60 years of ministry, Ray invites you to know him. As you become acquainted, you will discover a man of unfaltering earnestness and disarming tenderness. If you begin to sense that, if it were possible, he would love to get to know you too, you wouldn't be mistaken. His heart for people is matchless. Yet, one wonders, what makes it beat? The answer to that question is the theme of this book - the theme of Raymond D. Martin's life. It is, perhaps, exceedingly rare that a person can say with absolute honesty, "for me, to live is Christ " This is the story of such a person and the amazing grace of God.
