I’m usually not an enthusiastic reader. I’d much rather hear or watch a story than read it. However, two weeks ago, I started reading Same Kind of Different As Me (following many recommendations) and I couldn’t put it down (literally). It’s the true story of a homeless man in virtual slavery, an upscale art dealer and his gutsy wife with a dream for what could be. Our pastor read it, then suggested our congregation read it and now we’re mobilizing to make a difference with the homeless in our community. So, here’s my recommendation – read it; it just may change your life.
