Product Description

Russell Ford, Fr. Ron Stone and Fr. Donald Calloway --
What do you get when you get three outcasts whose lives are transformed in a way no one ever imagined—including themselves? You get the conversion stories of three of the most remarkable transformations the Church has seen in our present day. These three men are modern-day St. Augustines in their own right.

On Russell Ford: When handed a twenty-five year sentence in an Alabama court room in 1987, Russell L. Ford was an agnostic living as a practical atheist. While still a catechumen in 1988, Ford’s priest insisted he begin teaching the catechism evangelistically. God blessed that effort with many conversions of hardened criminals.
Ford personally has sixty-two godsons, he has played a direct role in the conversions of roughly two hundred souls, the catechists he has trained operate successful evangelistic apostolates in eleven of Alabama’s eighteen major penal institutions, and he founded a national prison apostolate called Prisoners of the Perfect Prisoner National Network.

On Fr. Ron Stone: You'll encounter the reversion story of a young man who literally came within centimeters of committing suicide - yet was miraculously spared. He readily admits that his life consisted of "drugs, thugs and violence." If not for God's intervention, Ron Stone would have died from a drug overdose - just another sad statistic in a police report. Now, you'll journey with Father Stone on his unbelievable odyssey of faith from a drug rehab center to the altar of God. Prepare to be amazed as you witness how the Lord "writes straight with crooked lines."
On Fr. Donald Calloway: What does it take to transform a die-hard agnostic into a fervent apostle of Christ? How does God's grace literally transform hearts - one step at a time? In this amazing new conversion testimony No Turning Back, you'll literally be on the edge of your seat as a former "Deadhead" and drug-addict candidly shares how he was unexpectedly led to the Roman Catholic Church and eventually into a Roman collar as an ordained priest. An incredible odyssey of faith, Fr. Donald Calloway's radical conversion can be compared to that of a modern St. Augustine as chronicled in his famous Confessions

These conversion stories are moving, powerful and sometimes shocking. (Some content may be too intense for young listeners.) You will also be introduced to an entire way of life that you may never have given any thought to. Ford offers some keen insights and new perspectives on issues like capital punishment and why men and women in prison need our support, materially and most of all spiritually.

Fr. Stone shares how deceitful and empty the dark world of cocaine is, and how with God’s sanctifying grace one is able to overcome vices of any kind. Fr. Calloway reminds us that sex, drugs and rock and roll will always try to seduce our youth but can never triumph over the peace, joy and freedom God’s love provides.

As an added bonus to this set, we have included a never-before release by Fr. Calloway on the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. Fr. Calloway masterfully shares the life and ministry of St. Faustina and how the Lord appeared to her and gave her one of the most cherished prayers of the Church, the Divine Mercy Chaplet. Fr. Calloway then leads his listeners through the entire prayer in a most solemn manner.
