Nick Pirovolos
Convicts know. They have been on the streets too long to be fooled. They can tell when a man is lying, when he is telling the truth. That’s why the unusual ministry “Inside-Out” works so powerfully. Founder, Nick “The Greek” Pirovolos is telling the truth. And the cons can tell. When Nick Pirovolos tells his own story in prisons and in high schools, convicts and students alike sit up and take notice. It is a dramatic story of bloodshed and sadness, a story of God’s supernatural love, a story of glorious triumph. From a scrappy immigrant boy to a fearless underworld criminal, Nick terrorized the town and cities he roamed. As a hit man, thief and drug addict, he was reckless. It was as if life, his own or anyone else’s, had no value whatsoever. Then something remarkable happened. It wasn’t until Nick was sent to prison that he was truly set free. In February 1972, while in the intensive care unit of the Ohio State Penitentiary, Nick had an encounter with God. An old severe bullet wound brought Nick face to face with death. Nick was scheduled for an operation that had little chance for success. However, an inmate led Nick to Jesus Christ and, right then, God healed Nick miraculously! What society, with its millions of dollars could not do for Nick, Christ did instantly and gave him NEW LIFE! His autobiography is entitled “Too Mean To Die”.
