Coles Bearing The Burden Of Nations: The Paulos Gote Story at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
What an incredible story! Bearing The Burden of Nations is a story of strength, determinations and severe trials in a world saturated with corruption. Paulos' blessed experiences are told within braids of lessons with Biblical stories and verses. This is a story of growing up in Ethiopia, experiences from the Sycamore tree, to the climb of "Paulos' Palms", to being imprisoned numerous times, to travelling barefoot to escape to Kenya, to his immigration to Canada - a true story of strength. One statement still stands out in my mind that reflects his message and that it is "crucial that we check our theology on blessing and cursing and understanding the impact it has on future generations". I am so proud to have met this man from South Omo, Ethiopia. Thank you for the incredible read, Paulos! May God bless you! Renee Jansen Registered Nurse, Lethbridge, AB Editing Paulos' story and presenting it to the reader is a privilege. Discovering his wounds, hurts, sorrows, and even the atrocities that were inflicted on him and offering them to the world is an honor. Paulos' original work was penned in Amharic and then translated into English. There is something more powerful when one writes in their language and some of it is automatically lost when translated and then some is further lost when edited. But this is Paulos' story and I have sought to keep his storytelling style and way of speaking as the priority for presenting his life to the reader.........
