Whose Child Is This?: A Story of Hope and Help for a Generation at Peril, Paperback/Bill Wilson

Descriere

"The ministries of Bill Wilson's Metro Church and its Sidewalk Sunday Schools are a fascinating story of God's healing hand in a desperately needy world. The good news is that these ministries are being copied with great success in city after city across America..." -John Ashcroft U. S. Attorney General (2001-2005) For me, Metro Ministries always goes back to New York City. I'd like to tell you that when I first went there, I had it all figured out: A five-year plan, a ten-year plan, a strategy for success, and a budget. But I had none of those. In fact, I had no idea how to make the whole thing work-I just knew I had to do something to rescue broken and hurting children. I spent years listening to so-called experts say that what was on my heart couldn't be done-especially in New York City. But I knew that wasn't true. I refused to accept that ministry to inner city kids was impossible anywhere-especially in New York City. Whose Child Is This? is the story of a city filled with children who now have hope and a future because I refused to believe that anything was impossible with God... even in New York City. -Bill Wilson About the Author: Bill Wilson is the Founder and Senior Pastor of Metro Ministries, the largest Sunday School in the world and an international Christian humanitarian organization with headquarters in Brooklyn, NY.
