Produktbeschreibung

God is love and love brings hope. We are all designed with a purpose, and it is to reveal who God is to the world. The inspiring stories in this book define the "why" and "how" for this purpose, so that we can live it out every day. You want to change the world? Start making ripples of hope - Be The Change! -Kourtney Govro Author of A Ride Down the Road and A Day on the Water How can you change the world? Hope, kindness, generosity, compassion, humility, grit, courage, gratitude, empathy, joy, forgiveness, and love - carried out in your everyday life, one moment, one action, one person at a time, creating small ripples that you send out into the world. This book tells the stories of people who lived out these powerful traits and used them to make a splash that created ripples. As you read each story, you will see how interconnected these traits really are, and how, when put into action, their ripples coincide and coalesce to make warm and soothing waves of inspiration and hope, as well as powerful waves of love that can wash down the mightiest walls of oppression, injustice, prejudice, hatred, exclusion, indignity, and violence. The stories in this book will make you laugh, cry, gasp, and get goosebumps, but mostly they will challenge you to create ripples and make waves in the world each and every day. If accepted, this challenge will change many lives, including your own - and change the world for the better.

Autorenporträt

Jimi Cook is a professor and distinguished chair in orthopaedic surgery at the University of Missouri. In his first book, Hand Delivered Hope, he shared the incredible story of his journey to find profound purpose in building schools and providing educational resources in forgotten communities around the world. The non-profit organization that Jimi and his wife, Cristi, founded, Be The Change Volunteers, has completed more than 60 education-focused development aid projects in 17 countries, serving more than 7,000 students of all ages, genders, colors, cultures, languages, and religions. Jimi and Cristi firmly believe that they were put on this earth to help provide education - the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world (Mandela) - for "the least of these" (Matthew 25:35-40) so that everyone is afforded the opportunity to create a better future - for their families, their communities, and the world.All proceeds from sales of this book directly support Be The Change Volunteers
