Rapping to Salvation is a fun, fact-filled and easy to read collection of educational upbeat poems based on Biblical doctrine, American history and everyday situations. Rapping is an entertaining median designed to evoke thought, to get its readers to think and get across a message that will help decease crime, violence; both, serious problems plaguing America's people today.

Why hasn't more African American become successful since Jim Crowe Laws were banned? A renewal of our culture based on the teachings of Jesus Christ is good and acceptable before God. This is one step that we can take to change the demeaning culture inherited from slavery. That is to say that we can change the way we think, and then we can change the behaviors that prevent us from enjoying happy fulfilled lives. We can be born again. We can be born of the Spirit of God. People possessing the Spirit of God seek after love and how they may please God.
