"same kind of different As Me"
a friend recently suggested a book to me. It's called "same kind of different As Me" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. This book was an incredibly inspirational true story involving a well-to-do, worldly, successful business man and his God seeking wife, that crossed paths with a homeless man that came up from the slave fields of Lousiana. The lives of this couple and this man crossed at a homeless mission in bad part of Fort Worth, Texas. The book will keep you reading on its own and you will not want to put it down until you finish. It starts off kinda rough because its written from the perspective of Ron and then Denver, each taking turns by chapter. Pretty cool way to put a book together and I definitely recommend this book to anyone that is looking for a good read about how God works in and through the lives of both the financial sound and the homeless. Happy reading...

That was our book club book last month. I tried reading it but couldn't stick with it. I'm picking it back up and trying again. I've heard great things about it.
Yeah, I'll admit, I had the hardest time reading the first several chapters and almost gave up, but then it began to inspire me to see it written that way and then I couldn't put the book down. I kept a notebook nearby, there are tons of good quotes and wisdom. Hope it works out this time. It has really changed my perspective on homelessness a great deal, now I just want to apply it.
