Book Synopsis
"A voice under those deep muddy waters sternly said, 'You are going to drown.' ... In my confusion, another voice said to me, 'Take your feet and put them where your head is, and take your head an put it where your feet are ... and swim as fast as you can.' I had to put my trust in something, and so I obeyed the voice."In an inspiring story of listening for the voice of God above all else, Pastor Donell Morgan shares his story of hearing The Call. From his troubled background on the streets of New Orleans to his ministries throughout the Southeast United States, Pastor Morgan shows that God has a plan for even the most confused souls if they are willing to open their hearts and embrace the gifts and glory of God.
Review Quotes
Narratives of the journey from sinner to saint have long been a popular genre, dating back to St. Augustine of Hippo in the fourth century. What makes Pastor Mor-gan's different from most modern works is that it is related by a truly humble, grateful man who recognizes the love, mercy, and power of the One who never deserted him while he wandered in the wilderness of ignorance and sin, patiently guided him through the struggles of change and maturation, protected him from evil in all interactions, brought him to the stage where he could share that loving Creator/Savior with his fellowmen, and has helped him use his experiences to resourcefully negotiate the chal-lenges of his pastorate. Pastor Morgan's gripping account is a true reflection of his heart and life, an exciting story of peril, dangers, and a loving, persistent God.

I would highly recommend that everyone read this book. It awakens the reader to the consequences of making wrong choices and inspires them to turn their lives around.

Elder Donell Morgan was my guest on 'WJOU 90.r FM of Oakwood University. His testimony revealed there is nothing too hard for the Lord. You will be inspired by his story of God's leading.
