Bio:: Jesus Christ found me sitting in Attica Prison years ago and changed my life. i am now a prison Chaplain and Jesus gave me a gift not only of life, but to put His message to music. Of course my audience is mostly those in prison, but I am told by many christians that they listen to what the Lord has given to me everyday! Some have called me lil David. i love to sing and Glorify Christ.
As a kid i was physically and mentally abused by my father, my father a Jewish man fought all his life for being Jewish, but he was a trained fighter, and wanted me to be like him, and like all children in Israel to be trained to fight for what i was a Jew, but he took it to far, the beatings were supposed to be at times (so he said) preparing me for life. So i grew up hating my dad. i remember i broke my leg at 10 years old and my dad didn't believe it was broken he made me walk on it and then snapped it straight to prove i was faking or tough enough to handle it! i swore that day if i didn't do anything in my life i was going to kill my dad. But i didn't want to do it with a gun or a knife but with my hands i wanted to beat him like he beat me!
i was tough on the outside but i was a broken child on the inside! And when trouble came my way, I would fight my way out of it! i had no confidence in any adult cause they some how represented my dad. i was a hurt kid, looking for answers, and i couldn't find any. i joined the Marines, and after becoming a marine still my heart was broken, while in the Corp i started struggling with seizures i would black out and go crazy i didn't know what was happening, they didn't call it PTSD back then after getting out of the Marines, i was searching for inner healing, drugs and alcohol everything i could find to fill the void, but i was still broken. My nick name on the streets of NY was Chico El Loco kid the crazy,i started dealing drugs and did a lot of fighting to prove myself, being a Marine and trained by my father i thought i was invincible until one day a group guys gave the beating of my life, so i started carrying weapons guns, knives, whatever would give me advantage but still on the inside i was angry and hurt.
i cried a lot when i was alone and never new why. i could watch a sad movie or anything that had touching things in it, cause even though i had a tough outside, i was a hurt broken kid on the inside.
Soon i found myself sitting in jail and i got in a battle with the guards which gave me bragging rights in jail cause it took 12 guards to put me down, not very impressive considering what a beating i took that day. Finally holding me down on the ground they shot me with thorazine in both arms and put me on two seizure drugs i took one 6 times a day and one 8 times so they kept me sedated.
i was in the hole or solitary as they call it! And a inmate (a Trustee) came to bring me my food and told me that Jesus Christ loved me, but i was jewish and didn't believe in Jesus. I wanted to hurt this kid, but he kept saying that Jesus loved me & had healed him and could heal me too. So i went to church with him just to get him off my back, but something happened in church that day, Jesus Christ did something to me i can't explain. Following the service the Chaplain came to see me a Pastor Austin and ask me if i wanted to accept Jesus Christ into my heart. He told me to try Jesus and if i didn't like him the devil would always take me back. So i did ask Jesus Christ to come into my life that day and He change my life. (Jesus Christ The Gift Of God Set me Free!)
i got convicted of conspiracy to commit murder along with a few other charges but i didn't do the conspiracy, and that was the main charge. i did everything else but not that!
At the time i didn't know that Jesus Christ was working in this. My case was three days later overturned and i was free from all the prisons in my life. In 1988 i prayed with my dad to he accepted Jesus. Thank you Lord!
