Reseña del libro "Faith in the Eye of the Storm: Katrina Stories in Four Voices: Belief at Work During Natural Disasters (en Inglés)"
Silence...an unusual place to start in harrowing narratives about a hurricane. Yet, that is where "Faith in the Eye of the Storm: Katrina Stories in Four Voices" begins; in the surreal silence immediately following the passing of the destructive storm. What happens now? How do people respond to the extreme devastation of natural disasters, especially people of faith? Through candid conversations with survivors of Hurricane Katrina, through interviews with staff members of relief organizations and of volunteers, and through intense personal experience, this faith response is examined. The growth and healing that occurs as a consequence of this faith in action is as varied as the individuals who respond. Those who live here find hope. Those who come to serve, leave profoundly changed. Interspersed among these accounts are poems from Katrina: Poetry in Two Distinct Voices (Lincoln, NE: iPublishing, 2007) written by Cee Cee Jay Spencer, a Hurricane Katrina survivor. Enveloping all the narratives is one overarching voice - the voice of God, before, during, after, forever. Proceeds from this book will be donated to disaster relief and recovery efforts through Hope Builds, Inc., a non-profit organization. (Book study included.)
