The Street Book

Do you have experience reading books? Would you like to review my book? john@brotherjohnelving.com

After years of writing, traveling, praying, and walking through some of the hardest seasons of my life, my memoir is finally coming to the finish line. I am down to the last chapters and the full book will be completed this year. This project has stretched me, healed me, and reminded me again and again of the grace of God, and I am excited to share it with you.

This book tells my story from the streets to ministry, from addiction to redemption, and from total brokenness to the mercy of Jesus Christ. You will walk with me through winters in a tent, hospitals, shelters, churches, miracles, spiritual warfare, and the incredible people God brought into my life along the way. It is honest and raw, and my prayer is that it brings hope to anyone who needs it.

My goal is simple. I want to give this book away for free to people who need encouragement the most. When it is finished, I will be donating copies to drug and alcohol recovery centres, homeless outreach ministries, and to people I meet while traveling across Canada and the United States. Everyone who has supported my little ministry will also receive a free copy, both digital and printed.

The book will be one hundred percent free. If anyone wants to help with printing costs, I have set up a GoFundMe as a public ledger so everything is transparent. Every cent goes directly to printing the book and getting it into the hands of people who need it.

As I finish the last chapters, I am opening the door for early readers. If you want to download the full manuscript now and give feedback, just send me a message and I will gladly send it to you.

One more thing I am grateful for. My ex-wife is writing the foreword to this book, and she has been a strong supporter of my ministry and outreach. The reconciliation God has brought between us in these last few years is one of the biggest blessings of my life. I am visiting my kids this weekend, so I won’t be doing any live videos until I return, but I wanted to share this update.
