Brought up poor, hungry and illiterate in rural Pennsylvania at the turn of the twentieth century, he rarely knew rest from his labours.īut, meandering brokenly homeward after a gruelling day of back-breaking work, young Aiden heard snippets of a street preacher’s message at the centre of town. If you want frank, straight-up writing shooting straight from the hip, Tozer will deliver. Will you get a second chance? Time will tell. If he can’t make anything of you, into the fire you go. No, we’re a piece of clay in the hands of the Almighty. But wait 20 or 30 years, and SEE what they’ve made of it - for by then, they’ve been given stale black bread for their banquet. And guess what? He’s still right there, showing you a way OUT of your mess. ![]() But oh, how you cringe when the storm clouds gather. We’ll find a certain lady deucedly attractive - and He’ll shout, “now what in tarnation d’you think YOU’RE doing?” We’ll ask Him for a special favour - and He’ll heap it into our lap a HUNDREDFOLD. We’ll try telling a barefaced lie - and God will hound us down.
