Chasing God: One Man's Miraculous Journey in the Heart of the City
Ebooks are designed for reading and have few connections to your library.
Chasing God is Roger Huang's
gritty, heartfelt story of obedience to God's call to follow Him
into the heart of the city. That mission can inspire you!
Leaving behind his abusive home in Taiwan, Roger
discovered both the American Dream and his French bride,
Maite. A dramatic event took place before his very eyes and
prompted Roger to rethink his future and his calling. As a
couple, Roger and Maite chose not to ignore the plight of
the poor and homeless in San Francisco's most impoverished
district, the Tenderloin. Since founding City Impact,
Roger has led many in discovering the power
of prayer, fasting, and serving hands-on in a community
starved for hope. Chasing God is a
testimony to God's miraculous provision and
will challenge you to consider how to serve and care for your
own city and community.
