A very inspirational book. John Robinson brought to the fore the need to reach the mostly rejected and neglected youths on the streets of Manchester or any where else for that matter. A daunting task, only possible through the help of the Holy Spirit. The many testimonies presented in this book in the wake of his first book 'Nobody's Child' has also blessed me, I am particularly touched by the half caste Aboriginal woman's testimony and the 18 year old who identified himself as a fellow Nobody's Child. A committed servant of God John Robinson, his life and example is an inspiration to many myself included.
