“I'm the son of a pastor and evangelist and I've described many times how my father, when I was a child, was an alcoholic. He was not a Christian. And my father left my mother and left me when I was just three years old. And someone invited him to Clay Road Baptist Church. And he gave his heart to Jesus and it turned him around. And he got on a plane and he flew back to my mother and me.” YearsHeartChildrenChristianMotherThreeFatherJesusLeftChurchSonPlanesThree YearsPastorInvitedClayAlcoholicsFlewBaptistsEvangelistsThree Year Olds Author:Ted Cruz
