The Cross and the Switchblade by David Wilkerson, John Sherrill & Elizabeth Sherrill Book Summary

The dramatic and inspiring true story of a small town minister called to help inner city kids everyone else believed were beyond hope...

David Wilkerson was just a young preacher in the Pennsylvania hills when he was stunned by a new calling from God: go to New York City to speak to seven young gang members on trial for murder. 

But something much greater was to come. Once in New York, David was inspired to stay for a lifetime of helping troubled teenagers get free of drugs and crime. With the word of God in his ears, he founded an inner-city ministry still known as the Teen Challenge to change their paths and alter thousands of lives forever.

The Cross and the Switchblade is a testament to the enduring power of faith and the potential for change—an unforgettable tale that will leave you inspired, uplifted, and forever changed.

Awesome. This a true tale of obeying God's word and the actions of a remarkable man. He is a great example of what true piety is!

WOW. This story is truly moving! I am 19 years old and God has inspired me through this book.

Simple, but challenging. As a Christian and a youth minister, this book has challenged me to have the same Holy Spirit-love for my students as Wilkerson does for his.

Encouraging testimonies. What a powerful message! I heard so many things about the Cross and the Switchblade until I decided to read it. David Wilkerson you inspired me.

Read at age 11. AmazIng motivational book for children

The Cross and the Switchblade. The book itself is fantastic!!!! The edition that I downloaded to my iBooks was rife with grammatical errors, however. Purchase a hard copy and you will not have that problem. =)

Amazing. To take a step & leap of faith to reach teenagers in a messy world…..this book was and is so encouraging.

Awesome, inspiring, moving. I love David Wilkerson and had the privilege of attending his church in Times Square back in the early 90's. This book is a true testament to the work of the Holy Spirit. I only wish I could have met David Wilkerson. This book is a must read. God be glorified for changing lives.

Amazing despite the numerous typos. I'm not Pentecostal, but Christ, the Father and the Spirit are truly exalted in this beautiful story. Though I may disagree in points of theology, the regenerative work of the Spirit is clearly demonstrated in the stories of the people in this book. Thank you Jesus, for Mister Wilkerson.

Great book! Encouraging and powerful. A sincere book that crosses all denominations and focuses on the truth of God's loving word, on the wonderfully impacted teens in NYC as experienced by the late Pastor David Wilkerson, and on the power of the Holy Spirit as witnessed and personally experienced by thousands of teenagers in NYC. I loved the movie, but now I know why everyone says that the book is much better!

Cross & switchblade. This book is such a wonderful testimony to how God can use an empty vessel & work amazing miracles. A must read for any Christian that needs a word of encouragement!

Incredible. This true story of the Holy Spirit's guidance is awesome!!

Amazing. An amazing story about a man, his obedience to God, and answered prayer. Miracle after miracle is seen by these prayer warriors who chose to help NYC's troubled teens.

Cross vs. Switchblade. Amazing, Inspirational, and a heart throbbing story. Will push you to look at the power of God in a new way. May Reverend Wilkerson be in peace with our lord Jesus! His work lives on for the glory on through his minostries!

Wow. That was interesting

Pretty good. Pretty good considering I am not religious and only reading this for school. Downside was that he writes that homosexuality is a sin, and coming from the view of a millennial, I don't believe this

A Gripping Testimony. This man's testimony to stepping out in faith of what is comfortable and familiar to spread the light of the Gospel in some very exceedingly places and just letting God take control through His Spirit... God will do far exceedingly above and beyond anything we can ever imagine! This book is raw honest and that is how God likes us to be with Him which achieved some outstanding results that have changed tone of the greatest cities in the world for the better forever!

The cross and the switchblade. Captivating, spiritual and truth. The best way to describe this heart touching story of David's life in the slums of New York 1960s
