1720 East Woodrow Street: The Alvin W. Johnson Story
1720 East Woodrow Street, The Alvin W. Johnson Story, is an unbelievable autobiography about four Johnson brothers growing up on East Woodrow Street in Tulsa with a mentally ill mother and a faithful preacher father. Sometimes hilarious and sometimes deeply moving, the story of four bad preacher's kids makes you shake your head in amazement that they all lived through it and found their destiny. Elder Johnson's destiny turned out to be prison ministry, but only after being incarcerated four different times before he saw the light and finally found Jesus. He started Lethal Weapon Prison Ministries because the "Lethal Weapon" against a lost life is Jesus. Elder Johnson tells the story of his mother from both sides-the tender side of "Momma Mac," as the neighbors called her, and the bizarre things she did when she was "sick," such as regular run-ins with the police. Their neighbors were afraid of her, with good cause, because she was known to pull a knife on you or throw boiling water on you once she was provoked. The author also honors the bond of love between his parents that survived the years of insanity because one man-his father-had made a marriage commitment to God for life.The book closes with the same words he speaks to prison inmates almost every week, words that call them forward to publicly start a new life with Jesus as Lord: He says, "Tomorrow isn't promised to anyone. This is the only time in your life that you can get it right." His hope and prayer is that this book will be distributed in prisons everywhere so that men and women in prison will find new hope and begin a new life, just as he did.This book is endorsed by the former president of Prison Fellowship, Garland Hunt, and nationally known Christian teacher and author Bishop Wellington Boone, both of whom have been in a unique position to watch Elder Johnson's life.http: //LethalWeaponMinistries.or

Published in 1999, this book is an exploration of the life and work of American sociologist Alvin W. Gouldner. Gouldner's life and contribution to legal theory is a case study in the limits of critical, self-reflexive inquiry. Hegel's dialect is a major theme running throughout Gouldner's work, and, even throughout his life, Gouldner himself seemed trapped in the unfolding of the spirit through three distinct stages: 1945-1960 - thesis; 1960-1970 - antithesis; and 1970-1980 - synthesis or new thesis. Implications for creating a reflexive critical sociology in Gouldner's image are discussed.

How did their reckless lifestyles lead to their downfall? From Ma Barker to Volney Davis to Edna Murray the Kissing Bandit, authors Deborah Frethem and Cynthia Schreiner Smith delve into the crimes, personalities and motivations of one of the most successful and infamous gangs in American history.
