N2  - This is a story of building houses for poor people... in south Georgia, U.S.A., and in Africa. It is a telling of how new communities come into existence and how they fired people with hope and faith. It is a story, too, about wooden legs and eyeglasses... a chicken house and a football field... a stinking prison...men fighting over Bibles...parrot feathers and a red flower from a white man's grave... and a man who believed his dead parents had entered a crocodile to bite off his leg.
The inspiring story of a man who turned his back on a fortune to launch a housing project in the Third World - and of its dramatic significance as a new form of mission. A moving story of sadness and joy, separation and reconciliation, defeat and victory, this is also a tale about God and how He enters situations in life and changes them...and changes the people as well
