5 Times a Slave

The Death and Resurrection of Maurice Burnette Ford

By: Maurice Ford

Narrated by: Kevin Howard

I didn’t just leave prison—I left the mindset behind.

In 5 Times a Slave: The Death and Resurrection of Maurice Burnette Ford, author, speaker, and former career criminal Maurice Burnette Ford shares how he broke the mental chains that kept him locked in a cycle of addiction, incarceration, and survival. After five prison sentences and years of being trapped by unhealed childhood trauma, Maurice reached a turning point: he realized he had the remote control to his life—and it was time to change the channel.

This powerful follow-up to his first book is more than a memoir—it’s a message. A blueprint. A guide for men and women like him who want to stay out of prison, rebuild their lives, and live as law-abiding citizens with purpose and peace. With raw truth, hard-earned wisdom, and spiritual clarity, Maurice shows how to shift your mentality from destruction to direction.

Whether you’ve done time, loved someone who has, or work with people trying to break the cycle, this book is a testimony to the power of redemption—and proof that your past doesn’t have to define your future.

You’ve had the remote the whole time. Now it’s time to take it back.
