Response to Kohl's solicitation letter. Cash writes about accepting Jesus as his savior during church when he was a 12 year old boy. The memory of that experience served as a beacon to call him back to Jesus throughout his life. He writes that studying Scripture is vital for a Christian, and gave him strength in the entertainment business. He remains committed to his faith.
