Unstoppable

Unstoppable: The Incredible Power of Faith in Action
by Nick Vujicic [Biography Vujicic]

This is the second book by Nick Vujicic detailing his life struggles and triumphs, and joyously declaring his Christian faith. Born in 1982 without arms or hands and with only a small foot where his legs would be, this determined Australian boy has grown up into an inspirational speaker and entertainer. Normally a fearless and fun-loving child, Nick went through a very dark time in his teens, both from depression and bullying, but he got through it by faith and with the support of family and friends who never doubted that he could be and do anything he aspired to. Now living in California, Vujicic is the married father of a "normal" toddler and has encouraged and ministered to many thousands of people on the web and in person at churches, rallies, and community events all over the globe. On his down time he enjoys such things as surfing and golf! If you're feeling like life is hard, Nick's story of weathering a severe disability and finding purpose and fulfillment is a good reality check. -- recommended by Becky W.C. - Walt Branch Library
