Humbled To The Dust

The life story of a troubled 16-year-old who was sentenced to die in prison for a robbery mission that resulted in him being given 241 years in prison. Read how this manchild turned his life around and turned lemons into lemonade. From gangs to religion, a lost soul found God. From ninth grade dropout to college graduate, it was education that helped free Bobby Bostic after his mother died at 42 years old from cancer three years into his prison sentence.

This story is remarkable. The very judge who sentenced him to die in prison became his advocate. Her efforts to free him led the Missouri Legislature to pass a law that allows juveniles who were not convicted of murder to be eligible for parole after they have served 15 years.

After his miraculous release from prison, after serving 241 years, he started a non-profit organization for charity and wrote 15 books, as well as serving as a youth mentor. This is a must-read story. Pick up the book and read it now or later, and feel the urgency of the message.
