Found in Translation (Altered Hearts Volume One)

By Roger Bruner

Description:

Faith, obedience, and forgiveness intersect in a remote Mexican village.

When Kim Hartlinger—eighteen and spoiled—arrives on a mission trip to Mexico and discovers, to her chagrin, that she’ll be doing construction in a remote village without plumbing and electricity, rather than evangelism in a medium-sized town with a fast food joint . . she has only two choices. “Rough it” (which isn’t exactly what Kim had in mind when she signed up for this trip) or turn around and head home.

Will Kim be able to touch the villagers’ hearts with the Gospel? Or will her time in Mexico be up before she gets the chance?

Book Takeaway:

God can do the humanly impossible through a thoughtless teen once she learns to be faithful, obedient, and forgiving.

Why the author wrote this book:

My daughter went on a mission trip to Mexico. Several of the things that happened to her inspired me to write Found in Translation first as a short story and then as a YA novel.
