A Stroke of Faith: A Stroke Survivor's Story of a Second Chance at Living a Life of Significance
Autor Mark Moore Cu Andy Butcheren Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 apr 2017
Mark Moore always believed he was in charge of his life. All that changed on a beautiful Saturday morning in May 2007. Suddenly he was no longer in control of anything. Though his life will never return to his pre-stroke normality, through this crisis, he has gained a deeper understanding of the centrality of God's role in his life and in all of our lives. A STROKE OF FAITH tells the story of moving from acceptance to surrender and from hope to faith. It reveals God's work in Mark's life as He transformed him from thinking he had everything under control to knowing God has had control all along.

Recenzii
An unforgettable story of a man's ability to overcome. Mark unveils his journey through stroke recovery with relentless courage and unshakable honesty.

I was stunned when I first met Mark Moore and learned that he had suffered two strokes at age 46-the exact same age when my own father suffered a stroke. That point of similarity grabbed my attention, and aroused my compassion, as I learned Mark's powerful story. Read A Stroke of Faith, and you too will be caught up in the story of how Mark first experienced the stroke, and even more in the story of how God helped Mark to face the devastating reality and then emerge to become a new man, dedicated to living his entire life God's way.—Reverend Dr. Mark Olson, President, John Leland Center for Theological Studies

Benson, MD/PhD, American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, Greater Washington Region Board of Directors President
Mark Moore can best be described as a philanthropic activist whose impact ripples out across our local, regional and national communities in the way that a coin ripples the water when it is dropped into a wishing well. All who are touched by his ripple are affected in positive ways that are realized today, tomorrow and in their future. He will call you to action and expect nothing less than maximum effort for the causes that he so passionately believes in... their mission is his mission.—Anthony T. Burchard, President, Inova Health Foundation
Rarely does one meet a person, akin to King Hezekiah, who is able to give testimony of how the Lord gave him many more years of productive life. Mark had almost obtained royalty status; wealth, influence, and living the dream, until he suffered a stroke. Having been reminded of how great God is, he has used his story to glorify God and give others hope. A Stroke of Faith is truly a treasure chest among the many resources God gives us to better appreciate how faith, love, determination and hope empowers us to overcome major challenges in our lives.—Rev.
