Love Can Open Prison Doors (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781500625214)

In the early 1900s, Starr Daily was a hardened criminal, the kind of man who seemed destined to spend his life behind bars. Filled with hate from the tender age of eight years old, Starr had already run afoul of the law repeatedly by the time he reached adolescence. Uncaring and calloused to the suffering of others, Daily admits that he "...harmed thousands, many very brutally." Daily became a hardened criminal, and spent fourteen years in prisons and chain gangs, surviving the barbaric penal system of the early 20th century by the force of his hatred. Everyone, including Starr himself, believed that he was beyond rehabilitation and without hope in this world. The world may have given up on Starr Daily, and Starr may have given up on himself. Yet, while no person on earth found him worth saving, in a phenomenal manner, Starr met his Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. The love of God changed Starr Daily; and as he learned to walk in that love, he changed his circumstances, the people around him, the prison institution, and the course of his life.
