Brownbacks story is the personal narrative of a man with a sense of mission for America and a heart of God. It is also the story of a spiritual awakening that came about through adversity--and cancer.

The book Sam Brownback will write will not be a memoir; it will not be a policy manual; it will not be a book of self-promotion designed merely to propel the Senator into the White House in the forthcoming election season. It will be the record of a remarkable journey of faith and compassion, and the story of what can happen when one man is utterly sold out to his Lord and conspicuously placed to make a difference in the world. Senator Brownback's story is the personal narrative of a man with a sense of mission for America and a heart for God. It will also be the story of a spiritual awakening that came through adversity, and what one aide has called his "cancer epiphany." How that change came about, and how the Senator is today going about implementing that vision in his life and work is the subject of this book.
