- Zusatztext
- - 2020 American Express NGen Leadership AwardWe don't care about what we don't see. Countless people are invisible to us. We overlook the poor and homeless, partly because we don't share much space with them. More seriously, we often choose not to see the realities around us. We hold misconceptions about who is deserving or not, or make false assumptions about people's poverty being their own fault. Terence Lester calls us to see the invisible people around us. His personal encounters and real-life stories challenge Christians to become more informed about poverty and homelessness, and to see the poor as Jesus does. When we see people through God's eyes and hear their stories, we restore their dignity and help them flourish. And when we recognize our own inner spiritual poverty, we have greater empathy for others, no matter their circumstances. Let love open your eyes. Discover how seeing leads us to act with compassion and justiceas God intends.

So he's come to his friend's snow covered English country cottage, deter-mined to shut out the world. Until a beautiful bombshell literally crashes into his Christ-mas! Innocent Holly Cleaver sneaks under Vito's defences. But their one night of passion has a shocking Christmas consequence!*Ruthless Apollo Metraxis knows the inheritance of his father's estate is conditional on a marriage and a child. But unpolished Pixie Robinson is the world's worst choice of a wife for Apollo. Until the wedding night exposes Pixie's untouched vulnerability. And that's before he discovers that she's carrying not one - but two Metraxis heirs!
