PREFACE As I take my imagination, and travel into the midst of my mind, I will be ever so careful to go into every corner, every crevice, and every thought to defend against the forces of evil that came up against me. After 25 years of being far removed from the unpleasantness of prison life, GOD have granted me this opportunity share my obstacles combined with time in life, I had to go through. This type of introspective investigation of myself will permit me to begin to understand what to do with the results my findings within me. Although, it may be a bit strange, but I ask that you tap into your imagination with me . . . come on and join me. Trust me, these teachings from Dr. Ferman’s lived experiences are very serious, but he will also have you bend over in gut busting funny stories. Nevertheless, the backdrop for this book is the Bible, and the purpose for these writing is for Dr. Ferman to lay down his life—telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but truth in his life with his Lord and Savior; Jesus Christ. After seven decades of life; crippled by Polio at birth with other known and unknown rare diseases, surviving as an “outsider” in an orphanage environment—about nine half sisters and brothers. Likewise, Dr. Ferman overcame the obstacles of the Philadelphia School System, as well as all the nefarious and devilish ways in the streets of Philadelphia. Then the ten years in prison . . . ten years on parole, stalked (yeah, by a real “devil—she devil,) for fourteen years. However, if it was the goal for “those” in-laws to make my life miserable . . . those first seven years, yes, emphatically yes . . . give yourselves a great round of applause . . . especially Tameeka’s daughter shafair . . . yeah, you, who is still gambling with her mother’s marriage--no Tameeka can not see it! As I stated earlier, ten years in prison, ten years on parole, death-row, and all those other obstacles combined with time in life . . . the worst part of this marriage is having you people as in-laws. Oh no, Twin-Shirley, I am not referring to you, if you had not been there for me . . . yeah, I would have been in Africa a long time ago. Thanks for not turning your face against your brother and Twin. I am dedicating this this book and audio book to you. Finally, it is an honor to “hurt” for the sake of Christ . . . as you know Jesus Christ suffered and die for the sin in the world . . . then His story was told and still being told. Therefore, my “hurt” is a story I must tell . . . my hurt . . . my experience . . . my hurt. So please, join me, on THE GOOD NEWS REPORTER with DR. FERMAN and let’s have some fun learning, from the scriptures, as GOD allows me to Iay down my life for some very hurtful people. Maybe someone out there can abstract from his teachings, and get comfort in “their” own “hurt.” Yes, everybody in the world is hurting from something-join me.
