Editorial Reviews:

Product Description

A dangerous, homeless drifter who grew up picking cotton in virtual slavery.

An upscale art dealer accustomed to the world of Armani and Chanel.

A gutsy woman with a stubborn dream.

A story so incredible no novelist would dare dream it.

It begins outside a burning plantation hut in Louisiana . . . and an East Texas honky-tonk . . . and, without a doubt, in the heart of God. It unfolds in a Hollywood hacienda . . . an upscale New York gallery . . . a downtown dumpster . . . a Texas ranch.

Gritty with pain and betrayal and brutality, this true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.

4 out of 5 stars I loved this book!   January 8, 2009
This book is truly a testimony to the work of God...an amazing humbling read! Well told look at two people who would have never met but for the grace of God. It leaves you pondering long after the last page is turned.


5 out of 5 stars Same kind of different as me   January 7, 2009
This is an incredible story that most people should read, however, it is not for the faint of heart. There were many times that I had to stop reading because I couldn't focus my eyes through all the tears. Still, the bottom line is that God has a plan for our lives and He can do incredible things through us if we just submit ourselves.


5 out of 5 stars Same King of Different as Me   January 6, 2009
This is a wonderful book about the power of God to change lives which are committed to Him through faith in Jesus. Two men from opposite ends of the social spectrum come to trust and help each other because they are transformed by the power of God's love.


5 out of 5 stars One of the most awesome books I've ever read!   January 6, 2009
This book gives an amazing account of being homeless and how people everywhere have the same wishes, wants, and needs - to be loved and to love.


5 out of 5 stars Angel of God   January 6, 2009
The story begins in rural Red River Parish, Louisiana with a young man who seems to be bound to the land. He is at a loss when his family die in a fire and he begins to wander. At the saame time, a student begins to attend East Texas State College ( now Texas A&M -Commerce). This young man from West Texas is somewhat of a wanderer too. He changes college and life style when he attends TCU and life begins for him, Falling in love with a girl name Deborah changes his life. Debbie is a true believer and as her husband Ron climbs the ladder of success, she begins to do little acts of Kindness . These acts include the changing of the lives of all she meets, especially Denver Moore. She is not a do gooder but an honest person who lives her faith.

I could not stop reading the book for two days. It conveys ideas that are true to a praciticing Christyian and Debbie is truly an Angle of God who becomes as the prayer says a Guardian dear.
