About this product

Product Information

From the Hood to the Hill is Chaplain Black's story of overcoming unpromising beginnings in the ghettos of Baltimore. His travels through uncharted waters exemplify God's power for change. Read his story and discover how you, too, can move toward unprecedented satisfaction through a living faith in God. "With Barry Black, you don't just hear a sermon, you see the sermon. That sermon is captured vividly in this story of his life. A life shaped by love, humility, confidence, courage, strength, and hope." - from the Foreword, THOMAS R. CARPER, US Senator "Barry Black is a leader among leaders. Brilliant and articulate, yet humble and approachable, he is a force for integrity, goodness, and compassion on Capitol Hill . . . this narrative, From the Hood to the Hill, is a fascinating read." - DR. RICK WARREN, Best-Selling Author, The Purpose Driven Life, and Pastor, Saddleback Church, Lake Forest, CA "Chaplain Barry Black embodies the best of the American Spirit and the Christian tradition-a man of great erudition who has never forgotten his humble roots; a man of great faith who remains open to all the wisdom of all people; a man of great seriousness who knows how to laugh. The Senate and the country are grateful for his service." - BARRACK OBAMA, US Senator "From a wonderfully unique man comes a powerfully unique story. Barry Black is a testimony to God's faithfulness and grace." - MAX LUCADO, Pastor, Oak Hills Church, San Antonio, TX "This is an inspiring autobiography by an outstanding man of God, a great leader, a powerful preacher, and a true patriot . . . Barry Black is my cherished friend. I'm honored that he succeeded me as Chaplain of the United States Senate. Fromthe Hood to the Hill is a stirring and power-packed book of the way God uses whom He chooses." - DR. LLOYD J. OGILVIE, Former US Senate Chaplain

  • Inspiring book

    I bought the book after hearing Barry Black speak, and found it to be inspiring as Barry Black in person. To read about his life in what some would call a "rags to riches story", I was impressed that in his journey to fame he never lost sight of his humble beginning, the values instilled in him by a loving mother, or the decision he made early in life to put Christ first. He beat the odds numerous times in his life to rise from a childhood in the ghetto, to Chaplain of the US Senate, and gives many tips that have helped him along the way.

  • Hood to Hill

    The first time I heard of Barry Black was through my army son and was told I should see Chaplain Black. Awesome! Well I was not able to meet him in person, however, I was able to buy his book at a retreat. Well I met a young woman who I thought would love to read this book so I gave away my book and went on Ebay to find another. Which I did. So I bought another. Then I gave that one away to my youngest son and had to buy another. So I did, but this time I bought two. One for me and one for my mother. His story is inspirational and I usually don't like true stories, but this is a very motivating story and great for young people as well as older people. It's inspiration to the young African Americans who think they cannot arise above proverty and can make a difference in their lives through ...

  • Very Enlightening
