Summary
Fiercely proud and resolutely anti-Christian, it was always going to take something dramatic to turn army officer Gordon Hickson’s life upside-down. His stories of miracles both in Africa and the Western world, in his own life and those around him, will stir your faith and inspire you to believe that it’s an exciting time to be alive!
Gordon’s life story ‘Harnessed for Adventure’ can be bought on Amazon or the audiobook is available at heartcryforchange.com. Another book worth reading is ‘Make God’s Love go Viral’. You can contact him at gordon.hickson[@]gmail.com
