The purpose of this website is to bring glory and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Our goal is to reach as many as we can from all walks of life with the message that Messiah Jesus has willingly laid down His life on a cross at Calvary as full payment for sin for all who place their faith and trust in Him. We hope, therefore, through David's testimony, to encourage our viewers that God is able to forgive and restore even the worst of criminals, and those who may think themselves to be beyond any hope of redemption.
As the apostle Paul said in the Scriptures, that before his salvation experience, he was the "chief" of sinners (1 Timothy 1:15). Likewise, David Berkowitz was one of the worst sinners of his day. But if God can forgive David and heal his mind and soul, He will do the same for anyone else. As it says in the Bible, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10:13)."
See "Casting Crowns."
NOTE: Please understand that this website in no way excuses David's past criminal actions. We remain sensitive to those who suffered as a result, and they remain in prayer. Grief counseling or help is available to anyone who has suffered such a loss:
