John (Jack )Hager: Author of Captured by Grace

Today's guest is Rev. and Author John (Jack) Hager.DMA, Youth, Prison, Camp, Church Ministry; and Support Trainer. John is also the Author of "Captured by Grace: Intimately, Intensely, Intentionally". John describes himself as an Army brat, thief, alcoholic, Vietnam vet, drug user/dealer, convict, ex-con, Christ-follower, Reverend…these “titles” and more describe Jack Hager. In this autobiography, he recalls how prison guards found drugs in his cell block, prompting them to remove everything they could except what the courts declared they could not remove— the religious stuff. All he and the other prisoners were left with was a small stack of books and Bibles. After a couple of days of having nothing to do, he found a paperback book with the word “prison” in its title, which sparked his curiosity. Thinking he was going to be locked up for a long time, he started to read the book to learn more about prison life. He discovered the tale of an alcoholic World War II veteran, his run-in with the law, and his subsequent decision to be a Christian. Having no concept of who Jesus Christ was or what it meant to be a Christian, he then picked up one of the Bibles and began to read. John now prefers, to be known as a  “new creation in Christ.”. Let's find out how he started out in life.
