Seven years ago, an unexpected attack of viral encephalitis nearly took Chris'
life. It was the beginning of a long and arduous journey toward recovering the
communication and memory skills he'd long enjoyed and suddenly found absent.
God's amazing restorative power is in full evidence on each page of Beggars
Can Be Chosen.
