About This Book

Drawing on years of teaching psychology and hands-on rescue mission experience, the author examines conversion and regeneration as psychological processes observed in urban gospel work. She combines clinical reflection with practical narrative, describing day-to-day mission operations, fundraising and building improvements, outreach services such as meals and dispensaries, and the varied methods used to engage and rehabilitate men in distress. Anecdotes illustrate moments of change, humor, failure, and administrative challenge, while theological and psychological commentary considers sin, spiritual rebirth, and concrete guidance for lay workers seeking to foster genuine moral transformation.
