Book Description
We can be quick to pray for people around the world in times of trauma, but has prayer become a way to avoid taking real action? Are we reluctant to be fully aware of the suffering around us? Trevor Hudson challenges us to see, hear, and respond to the needs of others, recognizing the living Christ in all things. Hudson designed an 8-day program—a pilgrimage—to help all Christians cultivate the depth of compassion Jesus demonstrated. Through this program, pilgrims learn to be present wherever they are and with whomever they meet. "We seldom become more compassionate without working at it," writes Hudson. "One practical way to cultivate compassion involves building the pilgrimage experience into our lives. …The risen Christ meets us in the lives of those who suffer." Join Trevor Hudson in this exploration of how to love your neighbor as yourself and choose compassion as part of your daily life.

When he sees seventeen-year old Mickey Tussler throwing apples into a barrel, he knows he has found the next pitching phenom. But not everyone is so hopeful.

Book Description
It's a story about balancing competition with compassion, about focusing on individual goals without losing sight of life's bigger picture, and realizing the great influences that can be made by people who would rarely be considered great. A modern twist on the classic underdog, it's high school track meets Rocky...or Rudy. Rae had lived a tumultuous young life. Having lost both parents by the age of eleven, she was sent to live with her Uncle Joe. Joe was both polarizing and unfiltered, but under his guidance, Rae found solid footing, not just in life, but also on the track, where she had become a captain and a standout miler for the Morris High School track team. As Morris' head track coach, Joe was as unconventional as he was successful. Not only had he won dozens of team titles, at some point throughout his career, he'd coached a state champion in every event...except the mile. Rae was determined to win it for him, during this, her senior season. Rae's single-minded approach was thrown for a loop when Izzy showed up at Morris. As a student with autism, joining the track team could be Izzy's path to inclusion. Rae wanted to take the new girl under her wing, but Joe was against it, knowing the distraction would affect Rae's training and her pursuit of her own personal glory. What transpired was a season full of laughter and tears, triumph and heartbreak, reminding us all that in life's great race, the winner isn't always determined by a stopwatch.

Book Description
Imagine an America where blacks are the oppressors, and whites endured the brutal ship passage to become slaves. A Mile In My Shoes stands exactly on this very premise. In short, it tells the same ol' song and dance of oppression which is not about one's color. It is about whoever is on top, wanting to maintain this position while someone else has to be the nigga. Human nature is the operative factor; color is only an easy designator of difference. In this tale, whether one labels the religious rites circumcision, castration or mutilation, the truth is that the act is a horrific travesty, a mutilation of God's gift. Regarding race, we have come a long way, but we have yet to be in each other's shoes. We cannot go back in time. The only way to achieve true empathy is through strong visualization which can allow us to experience the other's lessons of the soul. A Mile In My Shoes is written at gut level, but with high ideals. Tremaine, the main character, is a young white male who, having witnessed tragedies no child should, grows to manhood by twisting the twisted roots given to him in his own way. The whole country comes to know the gang he initiated at the age of fourteen. Since its inception Nails has been his life, but at thirty-six years old, can an old soldier cross the tracks, join with a black woman, and start a new life? This is but one of the challenges facing Trim, but no matter the number of problems, the love of God remains the one constant in his life; God declares that His investment of spirit shall not come back void. But can the movement of spirit release him from the bondage of circumstance that he might find true love to surpass all else; that love which begins with love of God and self?
