My mom and I just finished writing our memoir titled Out of a Far Country: A Gay Son's Journey to God, A Broken Mother's Search for Hope. It will be released on May 3, 2011 by WaterBrook Multnomah (division of Random House). It's a memoir from two perspectives—a prodigal and a prodigal mom—which makes use of an evolving parallel narrative with alternating chapters.
We hope that it gets into the hands of those who have given up or are about to give up hope. And we pray that prodigals discover that they can always come home—no matter how far the country. Our Heavenly Father is waiting!
Hi, Bro Christopher,
ReplyDeleteGlad to receive a reply from you. Our God is truly amazing. Just watched the chinese videoclip and praise God for His great work in your family. It is touching and encouraging!
2 verses came to mind while watching the video clip. Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert. Joel 2:25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. May God bless your family to exhalt Him always!
