About A To Z Of Near-Death Adventures: Second Edition

Product Description An alphabetical romp through a lifetime of hair-breadth escape, dire danger, and even bizarre and unusual misadventure. The author is an ambassador of the Kingdom of God and this has painted a target on his back for the forces of darkness from early childhood. You will thrill to the tales of terror, laugh uproariously at hilarious circumstances and lightheartedly humorous storytelling style, and find your own faith in God's care and protection growing with every chapter. Twenty-seven stories about the faithfulness of the Father that will cause your trust and faith to soar. Review Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!" -Hunter S. Thompson When snatched from the jaws of death, tooth marks are to be expected. ―Hal Story To die will be an awfully big adventure. ―Peter Pan . . . the devil . . . was a murderer from the beginning. . . ―Jesus (John 8:44) If ever a man of this modern age was destined to epitomize John Newton of old, that man is my friend Brian Hogan. As Newton hymned: "Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come." So too does Brian Hogan's startling warts and all life story reveal-after multiple encounters with bullies at school, a childhood escape from a pedophile, danger from impassioned Muslims in Egypt, appendicitis linked with a staph infection on the edge of Asia's Gobi desert, near-death from malaria in Mozambique and fugu poisoning in Thailand, not to mention entrapment by corrupt officials in Tanzania and a scurrilous cab driver in Bethlehem-that our Brian is still pressing ahead in his service for God. And now for a little secret: all of the above daunting challenges are just part of the many crises he has faced! Yet Hogan's gauntlet of hazards just as truly also affirms the next line of John Newton's famously autobiographical hymn: "'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home." Indeed, both men traveled the world, Newton as a slave trader who became a man of faith and an advocate for emancipation, Hogan as a teenage miscreant who-captured by the love of Christ-inspired a handful of Christians in Mongolia to multi-ply their numbers phenomenally and then proceeded to teach bands of believers in dozens of other nations to "go thou and do likewise." Across America and around the world, Brian Hogan has become an example of what it takes to manifest Christ in ways that offer to "some from every tribe, language, people and nation" emancipation from the power of evil. Reader, to prepare yourself for what awaits you here, I recommend that you first draw several deep breaths and then, as you begin reading, pray that you will still have some adrenaline left in your glands by the time you get to the last page. It will take an extra ounce or two to thank God adequately for the impact of the Hogan saga.
