Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about how one man’s journey as a Chicago Police Officer helped him to seek out his true calling in life. It explores in detail his life on the mean streets of Chicago. It provides an up close and personal look at how death, danger and destruction affected him mentally and spiritually. His experiences on the streets led him to resign and begin another chapter in his life. This new chapter began with him studying at Candler school of Theology in Atlanta, Georgia. His personal mission was to become a protestant minister. However, the Lord had other plans. His experience at Candler helped him to embrace his Roman Catholic tradition and eventually enabled him to answer his call to the priesthood.
