Product Description
A dangerous, homeless drifter who grew up picking cotton in virtual slavery. An upscale art dealer accustomed to the world of Armani and Chanel. A gutsy woman with a stubborn dream. A story so incredible no novelist would dare dream it. It begins outside a burning plantation hut in Louisiana . . . and an East Texas honky-tonk . . . and, without a doubt, in the heart of God. It unfolds in a Hollywood hacienda . . . an upscale New York gallery . . . a downtown dumpster . . . a Texas ranch. Gritty with pain and betrayal and brutality, this true story also shines with an unexpected, life-changing love.

Denver Proves to Us that No Matter How Worthless You Feel, You Can Change the World! August 20, 2008
You must read this book. You will be humbled, encouraged, challenged and heart broken as you read this gripping true story of three very different people with more in common that you can imagine. Have you ever felt worthless? Ever wrestled with prejudice or apathy? Or have you felt you were better than someone? Come on now, haven't we all at some level felt all of these feelings at one time or other? Read SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME. It will show you the world from another's eyes. You'll see how we lose out for judging others so quickly, no matter their race, social status or gender! SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME is the true story of Ron Hall, a wealthy art dealer, his precious wife Debbie Hall and Denver Moore, a homeless man who never had a chance in life--not even a chance to go to school. They meet up when Ron's wife Debbie begs him to join her in volunteering at a homeless shelter. My oh my, we all have so much to learn. Ever think God was a respecter of persons? Then read this book and think again. If you ever wondered how God can use you, even if you feel you are worthless or unimportant, then read this book. Denver Moore may have been an uneducated homeless man, but God loves him and has/had a specific plan for his life from the day he was born...a plan bigger than he could have ever dreamed! God has used him to change me. Thank you Denver and Ron for sharing your story. Thank you Debbie for living your life free from regrets! May I take your challenge and live every day of my life as though it was my last, no matter the circumstance. Read the story of Ron, Debbie and Denver and change your life today!
Good Read, Great Story August 18, 2008
If you have ever wanted to make a difference in the world, read this book. I found it so encouraging to know that there are still people in our society that take Christianity seriously. I have always believed that Christians are called to love all mankind through charity (love), hope, and faith. We are not called to judge, God is our judge. This story demonstrates how the smallest act of kindness can make the biggest differences in others' lives.
I have purchased a copy for two young men who are serving time in prison, that I know personally. I hope that the message in the book encourages them and that they can make the difference in the lives they touch, in such a racially charged environment. I am encouraged. Thank you for publishing this book.
Inspirational and more August 10, 2008
The story is one every American should read. It shares a part of our history that is painfully sad with a beautifully written, true story. God's love and grace are so evident in every page.
One of those must reads for everyone.
