Pastor and president of World Challenge Gary Wilkerson paints a bigger, brighter, and more biblical picture of what God's favor is. God showers his abundant resources upon us--things like forgiveness, restoration, peace, joy, power, authority--so we can then abundantly bless others and show the beauty of his unearned grace to a hurting, unbelieving world.

Esta es la historia de David Wilkerson, el hombre que creyo contra todas las posibilidades, que Dios podia hacer grandes cosas entre los rechazados e ignorados de la ciudad de Nueva York; que se nego a abandonar a los que vivian en las calles, aun cuando ellos mismos habian abandonado toda esperanza, y que vio en los ojos de los drogadictos y de l

This is the story of David Wilkerson, the man who believed against the odds that God could do great things in the rejected and ignored of New York City, who refused to give up on those on the streets even when they had given up on themselves, and who saw in the eyes of the drug addicts and gang members what others failed to see-the love of Jesus Christ.But who was David Wilkerson? Many Christians don't really know. More often than not, we saw the fruit of his faith in God rather than the man himself.When Wilkerson moved to New York from rural Pennsylvania in 1958 to confront the gangs who ran the streets, he was a skinny, 120-pound man. After the initial publicity that brought him face to face with some of the most dangerous young men of the city, he largely flew under the radar of the media, using the Word of God and a bit of tough love to help men and women of the street escape the destructive spiral of drugs and violence. Wilkerson was always the real deal, full of passion and conviction, not interested in what others said was the "e;right"e; or political thing to do. Wilkerson later founded the Times Square Church, now a non-denominational mega-church of 8,000 members, to this day a crossroads for those battling sin, drugs, and pornography, and a place where the message of Christ is discussed. He created the faith-based program Teen Challenge to wean addicts off drugs, and then World Challenge, dedicated since its beginning to promoting and spreading the Gospel throughout the world. Both now have branches worldwide, continuing the work that God began in the life of one man who believedDavid Wilkerson was a man of faith who trusted God would give him what he needed to enter a world of crime and killing. He was a man of conviction who took the dream God gave him and marched forward without ever looking back. And he was a man of vision who could not be shaken from his beliefs-sometimes even when counseled otherwise. David Wilkerson was the preacher of New York City.
