The Sacred claim...

Jackie Pullinger was born in Britain in 1944. She had a great love for music even in her childhood. At 22, Jackie Pullinger wanted to become a missionary, but no society would take her on. So she went on her own to Hong Kong in 1970s and began a pioneering work among drug addicts and Triad gang members that continues today. Jackie still works among drug addicts and street gangs. You can read her about her journey in her book "Chasing the Dragon."

And there you have it, a perfect example of David Wilkerson's sermon.
I have never heard of Jackie Pullinger, but I hear the overwhelming love of God in her voice and words, as well as a heart moved by anguish. She reminds me of Elizabeth Elliot and somewhat of Mother Teresa, it is the same anguish, the same love, the same heartbeat of Christ beating within them all. These are those whom we must listen to.
