Product Description
Meet Denver, a man raised under plantation-style slavery in Louisiana in the 1960s; a man who escaped, hopping a train to wander, homeless, for eighteen years on the streets of Dallas, Texas. No longer a slave, Denver's life was still hopeless-until God moved. First came a godly woman who prayed, listened, and obeyed. And then came her husband, Ron, an international arts dealer at home in a world of Armani-suited millionaires. And then they all came together.

But slavery takes many forms. Deborah discovers that she has cancer. In the face of possible death, she charges her husband to rescue Denver. Who will be saved, and who will be lost? What is the future for these unlikely three? What is God doing?

Same Kind of Different As Me is the emotional tale of their story: a telling of pain and laughter, doubt and tears, dug out between the bondages of this earth and the free possibility of heaven. No reader or listener will ever forget it.

 
Customer Reviews for  'Same Kind Of Different As Me'
 
This book may change your life
This book could change your life. I don't know any other way to put it. I've never read such a heartfelt story about how love can change the world and a little bit of faith can move a mountain. I'm not a very sentimental person when I read books, but I suggest you keep a tissue handy. I had a lump in my throat for about 3 or 4 chapters.
I highly recommend this book.
 
Person or Problem?
I loved this book. It features two men who on the surface are very different. One is a white, blue-collar born world-class art dealer who has made big money. The other is a black man who was raised as a sharecropper, ended up in the Louisiana State Prison and later, on the streets, homeless, in Ft. Worth. The two met when the dealer's wife decided they were going to volunteer at a mission that served the homeless. Then she said God told her that the two men were to be friends. The two men alternate chapters of the book, so you see how each perceived the same story. Bottom line: The art dealer's wife saw the homeless man as a person and related to him as a person, not as a problem to be fixed. Because of the way she related to him, he was able to fix his life. How often do we see those in need as people, rather than as problems to be fixed?
 
Modern Day Faith
This is a wonderfully rendered account of the intersection of two lives, as facilitated by a third.

These three people come to experience God, life, love and faith--in magnificent ways!

Read it and pass it on...

Same Kind of Different As Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who Bound Them Together

Excellent. Easy Read! Inspiring. We all can make a difference!

 
indifferent
I think the story would have been much more interesting had it been told entirely from Denver's point of view. I found the whole religious and spiritual overtones a little too much at times and a little preachy. I'm not sure if I would recommend this book. I thought the beginning started out ok, but midway through it became a little odd.
