A ministry in Brooklyn is teaching and proving that Jesus is stronger than addiction

Christian Post,
NEW YORK — Though he died in April 2011, the voice of Christian evangelist David Wilkerson still echoes loudly inside a well-kept neo-Federal style home at 416 Clinton Avenue in Brooklyn's Clinton Hill Historic District.
City records show the home was first designed in 1919 by R.I. Markwith for Miss Clara Van Vleck at a time when the wealthiest people in town built their stately homes along the tree-lined boulevard.
By December 1960, however, Wilkerson, who would later author the bestselling book, The Cross and the Switchblade, and start Times Square Church in Manhattan, purchased the house designed for Ms. Van Vleck and made it the home of a now international addiction recovery program called Teen Challenge.
