By his own admission, Jack Burbridge was once "as mean as a snake." Tall, muscular and blessed wwih lightning-quick reactions, he had, during military service days, the reputation of being "able to ship anybody."
Jack was in some kind of trouble all during his days in the service and even before. Offered the job of an underworld "enforcer," 21-year-old Jack Burbridge, naturally "at home" in the middle of a barroom fight, revelled in his new responsibilities. He actually smiled and smirked while beating up club managers who were trying to "hold out" on their payments to the organized crime syndicate for "backing," protection" etc.
This earned him the admiring nickname "Happy Jack." For awhile, all went well. Jack had money and the reputation of being one of organized crime's most feared, top enforcers.
Some real believers in the Lord were praying for Jack at this time. Finally, the Holy Spirit used the calm witness of one man to reveal to Jack that he was neither happy nor a very nice person. He was marvelously saved by the Lord Jesus Christ. Jail officials were amazed at the way he was delivered from a deadly heroin habit.
This is "Happy Jack's" startling story, sent forth for a double purpose, to encourage those behind bars and to proclaim to all people everywhere the mighty power of the One who saves, loves and give hope.
