About this listen
When a bitingly cold snow storm ravages Atlanta and a homeless man freezes to death on the steps of the rapidly declining Peachtree Church, the church members are forced to reassess the purpose of their organization. Will they shutter the doors or move forward, passionate for a new mission?
In the first book of the trilogy, we see the aftermath of the storm from several points of view - some church members, some community first responders, and some homeless. In the second and third books, the church starts changing to serve the local community, especially the homeless people around them.
Working in partnership with Jim, Gladys, and other formerly homeless, they create solutions that challenge the typical handouts and allow for a dignified hand up. The church members learn to start with whatever they have and eventually create a very good system to help eradicate homelessness in their corner of the world.
Shaken Awake will evoke compassion for the homeless community and enlighten you with ideas and simple steps to help end homelessness in your region.

As a teenager, Kristin Berry had heard all the horror stories surrounding foster care and adoption - abuse, neglect, rejection, anger, and misunderstandings. But instead of closing her heart, God opened it wide. This is Kristin's honest, unvarnished story of some of her experiences as a foster parent of 23 children over the course of nine years. What she learned is that living in a foster home is like living with a revolving door. You never know who will arrive or who you will have to say goodbye to. Leaving the door open means there will be heartache and pain, but also adventure and unexpected joy.
