Customer Reviews for Howard Books Kisses from Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption
Howard Books Kisses from Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption
What would cause an eighteen-year-old high school homecoming queen and senior class president to drop everything and move to Uganda to live with some of the poorest people in the world? Only love, and a desire to follow Jesus wherever He leads, could make a young woman choose this path. And Katie Davis did just that, forgoing a college education, disappointing her parents and boyfriend, to teach and care for children half a world away.
In Kisses from Katie, Katie Davis shares her journey of radical love that lead her from a short-term missions trip in 2006, to adopting 13 Ugandan girls and starting a ministry that feeds and teaches hundreds of children every day. It hasn't always been an easy choice for Katie, but the joy of serving the people of Uganda brings a deeper sense of fulfillment. Her remarkable story will inspire you to believe that every life is precious and you can make a difference wherever you are.

Katie's chronicals of her post highschool years challenge readers to think outside the college or vocation routes which seem to be a given for Americans after secondary schooling -even for Christians. I'm sure her experiences will enbolden others to allow the Holy Spirit to lead them into His purpose. It is an inspiring book!

This book was by far the best missions experience I have ever read!! Its a must read for ever person who is unsure of what God is calling the church to do. Its so true in many aspects, Katie explains how she just felt the need to go help these children and care for them. God has demanded this from the church since its foundation.

Excellant book about serving CHRIST with all there is to give. There is many good lessons remembered that are mentioned, such as not being overwhelmed by the big picture, but focusing on the one GOD has placed before you at that very moment. Then, watch how HE increases the ministry.

Having been on a short term mission trip to Africa, I can say that so much of the things Katie has written are exactly that way. My heart has been drawn to these poor but joyful people. The believers have such a strong faith. The conditions of sanitation and electricity and clean water were also so much as I experienced, although I was in a different African country. Katie has such an amazing maturity in her faith. It is so very inspiring and encouraging.

This is one of the best books I have ever read! She does a beautiful job of sharing God's work in and through her life. You cannot read this book without God speaking into your heart in a personal way.
