This is a great story about making it in life in spite of how difficult family makes life. Rob is raised in an orphanage and is abandoned by the people who should provide a real home and a loving enviroment. In spite of these Rob is determined to be a better, stronger individual who doesn't let his circumstances make life choices for him. He becomes a college educated minister who spends his life helping others to realize their potential.

An easy to read story great for teens and adults who are struggling with their place in life or who just want some inspiration.
