Underprivileged and disillusioned kids retell stories from the Bible in their own authentic street-gang language.

Aimed at the Sixties kid who needed words like "cool" and "Big Man" to communicate with/about God.

Has a glossary of terms in the back so the older generation could know what the poems, prayers, etc. were talking about. Hard to believe they would not have known "I give" meant to surrender.

Interesting example of "back in the day."

Kids from city streets reveal startling insights into Bible passages...as they translate them into their own language for Carl F. Burke.
