God is For Real Man Author:Carl F. Burke GOD IS FOR REAL, MAN is for real, man. Thousands of people - of all faiths and none - who have bought this book say so. Why? Because Chaplain Carl F. Burke's street gang teen-agers made a book that's up=beat, down-beat, off-beat...Because they retell bible stories in their street gang language authentically...Because they speak their hearts and ... more »minds without restraint...Because the kids cool it with their elders, cut through adult hypocrisy...Because their humor stabs your heart and you quit laughing...Because their faith will grab you, too.
