| Dear Friend, At just five years old, Kelvin Cochran knew what he wanted to do with his life. He was watching T.V. one evening with his brothers and sisters when they heard sirens outside. They opened the door to find their neighbor’s house on fire. Kelvin watched the firefighters with amazement. And right then and there, he told his family that he wanted to be a firefighter when he grew up. And he did. He rose through the ranks, battling racism and discrimination as a young black fireman in the South. Kelvin made it all the way to the top of his profession. President Obama appointed him as U.S. Fire Administrator. When the Mayor of Atlanta begged Kelvin to come back as the city’s fire chief, he did—not knowing that he would soon lose his dream job. Kelvin is a Christian. On his own time and on his own dime, he wrote and self-published a devotional for a Christian men’s Bible study. Some people got angry and complained about the book—and about six pages in which Kelvin discusses biblical sexuality and marriage. And that’s when everything went wrong. | Download the first chapter of former Alliance Defending Freedom client Kelvin Cochran’s new book, Facing the Fire, for free and get lost in his remarkable story of courage in the face of persecution. | |
