Description: Born & raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Evangelist Philip T. Hicks combines "mirth & a message" to captivate his audience! His standup routine entitled "It's hard to be a hick in a hi-tech world!" is followed by his miraculous personal testimony entitled "The Cross & the .357 Magnum." Despite being raised in church, he chose the life of a prodigal and in 1978 was shot by a .357 magnum then spent one full year in a hospital before going to trial in Florida. Led to a personal relationship with Jesus in his hospital bed, he was encouraged to TELL THE TRUTH at his trial despite the objections of his Public Defender. Choosing to "obey God rather than man" when he told the truth, the "foolishness of his doing so confounded the judge who made a mistake!" Exactly two years later his entire sentence of "Life + 15-Years" was completely vacated! Because he chose to no longer compromise and tell the truth, God used his obedience to miraculously set this captive free!! The hearts of both youth and adults will be awakened by the Holy Spirit as Brother Hicks reinforces the difference between "religion & a relationship" and the importance of walking in accountability! Whether ministering in churches or prisons, everyone is routinely challenged to go deeper in their relationship with God!

Released in December, 2005, "The Cross & the .357 Magnum" has been enthusiastically endorsed by Chuck Colson, Drs. Glenn Cole and Sam Huddleston, Merlin Carothers and Pastor Francis Anfuso. This 258-page book is already bringing hope and encouragement to captives on both sides of the prison wall - behind bars and those who sit comfortably in church pews while remaining incarcerated by such prisons as anger, pornography and other vices that keep them bound! Just as Brother Hicks has been miraculously set free from a Life + 15-year prison sentence, he's also been delivered from far worse prisons, such as anger and lust that held him captive!!
