Now I Am Known
Author: Peter Mutabazi
Publisher: Baker Books

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
At age ten, Peter Mutabazi ran away from home. For five years he survived on the streets of Kampala, Uganda, a city of 1.5 million, until one man saw potential in him. This man not only supported Peter through school but also altered Peter's outlook in every possible way. Since then, Peter has served as a relief coordinator during the Rwandan genocide, worked for the International Committee of the Red Cross during the Sudan conflict, emigrated to the United States, fostered countless children, and become a single adoptive parent. He speaks seven languages and has traveled to more than one hundred countries as an international advocate for vulnerable children. Now I Am Known is Peter's inspiring true story. In it he reveals the transformational power of taking risks, learning to forgive, overcoming self-doubt, breaking negative patterns, and believing in a better future marked by hope and purpose. *** "God met Peter Mutabazi in the midst of his agony, and he will meet you in yours too."--Kyle Idleman, bestselling author of Not a Fan and One at a Time "Peter's astounding and unlikely true story proves that if you remain committed and give it your all, great things will happen."--Sanya Richards-Ross, Olympic gold medalist and founder of MommiNation "A must-read for anyone wondering whether they can actually make a difference in this world."--Kelly Slater, American pro surfer and world champion "One of the most redemptive stories you'll ever read."--Jedd Medefind, president of Christian Alliance for Orphans

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This third book in Stephen Krensky and Sara Gillingham's empowerment series celebrates the feats of growing out of toddlerhood with increased knowledge. Whether comparing heavy rocks to lighter flowers, or noting that the sunlight delineates the day from the night, Krensky and Gillingham acknowledge the "small wins" of understanding the world just a little bit more. Young children and their parents will revel in the uplifting text and boldly colored retro-fresh illustrations. Praise for I Know a Lot "This appealingly illustrated, confidence-boosting board book will inspire little ones to think of--and perhaps catalog aloud--all of the important things they already know about their world." --Kirkus Reviews "The limited primary color scheme and preponderance of simple shapes bolster the idea of kids mastering the basics." --Publishers Weekly "Readers will respond to the child's confidence by being proud of their own understanding of the world. This is the third of this team's empowerment titles, but it is fully successful as a stand-alone." --School Library Journal "Sara Gillingham's colorful pictures, which, with their occasional offsets, look like hand-made prints, show the girl in the process of these and other discoveries: playing outdoors, sledding with friends and standing behind her father at the stove." --The New York Times "From the moment she opened I Know a Lot, she was hooked Turned out, that was her gateway into being completely obsessed with reading." --The Huffington Post

Book Description
These true life stories are related to the parable Jesus told, in Luke chapter 15, The Good Shepherd, where Jesus leaves the larger group to find the one that is lost. We all, at one point in our lives, are lost sheep. As a result, The Good Shepherd calls each one of us to a personal relationship with Him. Sometimes it is simple. Sometimes it seems He calls them with great personal upheaval. Either way, He calls everyone individually. Read about the road each person traveled and see how God intervened at times until He finally made a call which they accepted. These are interesting and heartwarming accounts. You will be amazed to read about the many turns some have made going far from God, then read how He drew them close. It will make you reflect on your own story of how God is calling, or has called you.
