Chapter 1:It was very interesting testing to read about the many “friends” that Father Boyle has. He is well-known for his work and his changes inspired me a lot. I never knew that lives can be changed so drastically. Father Boyle has worked with a lot of younger people, which is great because he can steer the young ones to the right path.

Chapter 4: Father Boyle has witnessed so much in this chapter. He had to tell a former gang member, who just got baptized, that his brother was killed. Father Boyle, or “G”, as the homies call him, has talked to a young teenager who is pregnant and wants to keep the kid.

I think they see the good in themselves, they’re just having trouble trying to get it out there.
Chapter 5: Father Boyle claims that he is not trying to change anyone. The homies are being guided to the good side. It is not that he is making them, they choose to change their lives and they have to make that change themselves. Father Boyle has been such a remarkable idol to these former gang members and they are learning to how to be good. But it is up to them to make that
