The purpose of this book is to encourage readers to never give up. With God on your side, your dreams will come true. The author is a United States veteran who fought during the Korean War, serving the country on a destroyer, USS Mansfield DD728 in the service. He returned to America at the age of twenty-three and became a Christian. He received a call to serve others in the ministry. With his family, they pioneered a work beginning in his home in 1969 that led to establishing a church work among the Chinese and Vietnamese in San Jose, California. God miraculously provided several properties worth over $1,500,000 and a local church now worth several million dollars in cash today. The church is debt free and completely paid in full. This is all due to a God who led the journey of a poor boy who started with nothing and became a dreamer. With the help of God, he made it all come true. I hope you enjoy reading this book. Thank you, Richard Shinn
