About this ebook

Rodney is a teenager who got caught up in drugs and was helped by God-loving people. When he thought he could not be forgiven for his sin and no one could ever love him, he found Gods love by reading the Bible. Now he was torn between his love for baseball and God. He was invited to spring training with the New York Yankees, but he also wanted to preach. After each game, he walked the streets of New York, preaching on every corner. He drew huge crowds and converted so many people that pimps and drug dealers threatened his life and beat him in their attempt to get him off the streets. But Rodney would not stop preaching and was willing to die, if that was Gods will.

The Yankees won the pennant, and Rodney was their starting pitcher in games one, four, and seven in the World Series. The death threats never stopped, and Rodney could have been killed at any time, but he was sure God would protect him. His courage and faith led thousands to Christ as a result. When the rapture came at the end of game seven, Rodney was the first to meet Jesus in the air, followed by thousands of others who were believers.

Author

John A. Mercurio

I am the author of six published books, but this book came to me from God Himself. After publishing five baseball books and one novel, I prayed that God would inspire me to write this book. How I know it came from Him is that next morning I began with a blank page and asked God what He wanted me to write about. Thoughts flooded my mind day after day. I continued, not knowing how it would end but just kept writing as if I were taking dictation.
