Do you like the feeling of your heart being warmed as you read the unfolding story of someone who, experiencing God's life-changing power, overcomes the liabilities of a deprived background and the slavery of a destructive lifestyle? Do you enjoy the thrill of hearing how childlike faith opened the door to miracles and triumphs of God's grace? Are you interested in reading a book that will deepen your love for Christ and help you become a more effective witness for Him? If you answered yes to any or all of the above questions, this book is a "must read" for you. After a poverty-stricken childhood in Saskatchewan, Joe, at age sixteen, arrived in Vancouver with $1.00 in his pocket. In bad company, he was soon entrenched in a destructive lifestyle. He survived many close calls with death while working in the shipyards and then for ten years as a logger. Then he met Bert Nickel who, in 1959, led him into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. In the decades that have followed, his partnership with the God of miracles has led him and his wife Helen into ministry that has been attended by God's direction, protection, provision, and deliverance, including the founding of a Chinese church in Vancouver and missionary work with Shantymen's Christian Association in BC, among loggers, miners, fishermen, recluses, First Nations people, seamen, truckers, and many others.
