Acerca de esta escucha
They operate like a close knit family, sleeping rough under a bridge, supporting each other in their desperate daily struggle for survival, but this group of Filipino street children has a weakness worse than poverty.
They had started at a young age, numbing the pain of hunger, dysfunctional families and abuse. Now, they are addicted to the solvents, begging and stealing to feed their habit and to make it through one more meaningless day.
They don’t care about their lives or the danger of the drugs, they assume they will die young. They are the notorious, detested, even hated, “Rugby boys” named after the sealant that keeps them high and stops them thinking about their tragic lives.
Logos Hope, a Christian missionary ship docks in the Philippines. Enthusiastic and cheerful crew members set up a book-table engaging passer’s by with the Good News of Jesus.
Almost immediately, they realise they are being observed by a bunch of ragged, dirty street kids who swim in the polluted river and fight imaginary battles as they hallucinate.
Locals are embarrassed, they wish their problem had not drawn the attention of these highly regarded foreign visitors.
Encouraged by friendly smiles from the team, the boys cautiously make their hesitant approach.
What will happen when these two worlds collide? Will light conquer the darkness and despair? Find out if there really is hope for the hopeless by clicking the "Buy Now" button at the top of the page.

Jill and Derick knew a normal life wasn’t possible for them. As a star on the popular TLC reality show 19 Kids and Counting, Jill grew up in front of viewers who were fascinated by her family’s way of life. She was the responsible, second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle’s nineteen kids; always with a baby on her hip and happy to wear the modest ankle-length dresses with throat-high necklines.

The true story of a man, who at age 10, ran away from home and for five years, he survived on the streets of Kampala, Uganda, a city of 1.5 million. One man saw potential in him, supported Peter through school, and forever altered Peter's outlook in every possible way. Since then, Peter's turn-around story only becomes more remarkable. In Now I Am Known, Peter reveals the transformational power of taking risks, learning to forgive, overcoming self-doubt, and believing in a better future marked by optimism and purpose.

Friends shied away from him because of his love for the arts.... Even those closest to him were mystified by his early passion for the Bible and his lack of interest in sports.

When Todd Tilghman, pastor and father of eight, auditioned for The Voice, he counted it as a win simply to sing in front of an audience. But despite not having any music or vocal training he won the show's entire eighteenth season! Fans loved Todd's rich voice, but they loved his exuberant joy even more. No one knew, though, that his joy came not from winning each round but from years of choosing light over darkness.

In Recovered, pastor and author Robby Gallaty tells the story of how God radically saved him from his addictions and called him into a life of discipleship. Robby grew up in a very religious Catholic family who attended church every Sunday and confession on Saturday if needed. Very rarely did he miss a Saturday night dinner and a movie with his parents and sister Lori. You can imagine how devastated they were when Robby stole $15,000 from them to fuel his drug addiction.

Who does Jesus love? The stranger who looks strange. The driver who cuts us off in traffic. The person online who thinks differently than we do. Loving people is hard. Especially when it involves the difficult people in our lives and those different from us. We say we love others, but really we don’t. Instead of loving, we hurt, belittle, and overlook people. Which is precisely why we need to learn how to love — from Jesus and from one another.

All he knew was that when his parents told him the family was going to America, Tani thought it was the start of a great adventure rather than an escape. In truth, his family’s journey to the United States was nothing short of miraculous - and the miracles were just beginning.
