In 1997, Ellis Lucas was wallowing in despair at the Clay County Missouri Jail after his home was raided by a SWAT team in connection with a massive ring of drug and paraphernalia manufacturing. He could never have imagined the unbelievable life transformation that was about to occur...
Alone and scared in his jail cell, Lucas couldn’t help but flashback to a tumultuous life that included everything from childhood abuse to years of depression, drug and alcohol addiction, the premature loss of his mother, hatred of his father over their turbulent relationship, a violent car wreck, a near-death experience in a house fire, debts beyond his means, a broken marriage and estrangement from his children. There in his cell, Lucas was reminded of the fervent Christian faith his mother clung ever so tightly too, right up until cancer robbed her of every last breath.
As Lucas chronicled extensively in his highly acclaimed first book, The Potter And The Clay, before his case ever got to trial, he was given some startling and surely supernatural news. The authorities were not able to find a single one of his fingerprints in any room or on any possession in that entire house, despite the fact that he had touched practically everything in the place! All charges were dropped.
This month marks the release of Lucas’ new book, WANTED, and you can get it exclusively at www.ellislucas.com.
