Lifting the Darkness: Thirty Years on the Road with Tough Talk

Publisher's Description:

Lifting the Darkness celebrates 30 years on the road with Tough Talk as former powerlifters and bodybuilders Arthur White and Ian McDowall relate their remarkable experiences of sharing the love of Jesus in prisons, schools and churches. 30 years ago, Arthur White and Ian McDowall dramatically met God and were changed from drug-dealing, knife-carrying underworld thugs to all-out followers of Jesus.

Coming together as Tough Talk along with Joe Hampshire, their passion for God took them onto the streets and into prisons, churches and schools telling everyone they could about the love of God. They still spend hours every week sharing their personal testimonies and telling people about Jesus through their power-lifting demonstrations, dynamic stories and infectious honesty.

From meeting murderers in a South African prison, to bench press competitions in schools, Lifting the Darkness shares some amazing stories from 30 years on the road. Up front, straight down the line and ruthlessly authentic, these men take God seriously. Their message has touched countless lives and they hope it will encourage you in your faith too!
