In this book, Errol shares his inspiring story and the lessons he learned on his journey from being an inner city gang member to becoming a minister, an international speaker, and a leadership coach. From the age of 13, Errol found himself involved in drugs and street gangs. A young man who had so much promise found himself struggling, largely due to the fact that his parents divorced when he was 11 years old and his father, with whom he was close, spent most of Errol's teenage years in prison. Errol's life is a testimony to the power of God's grace.

Summary
Preview:
The Alchemist is a Brazilian novel about a shepherd named Santiago, an 18-year-old youth who abandons his life in Spain to embark upon an epic treasure hunt across Africa. Making several unexpected stops along the way, he uncovers profound truths about himself, the world, and the kingdom of God, which are fundamentally connected. Ultimately, he finds the treasure, but along the way, he also finds love and personal fulfillment.
At 16, Santiago, who had been studying to become a priest, had defied his parents' wishes and set off to travel across Andalusia with a herd of sheep. The story picks up two years later. The boy has been leading his sheep all this time. Lovesick, he's thinking about settling down with the daughter of a merchant he met the year before. As he contemplates the future, he feels anxious, hopeful, and full of questions....
