Paul Lamar Hunter author of No Love, No Charity: The Success of the 19th Child
This is a must read book- the shocking story of Paul Lamar Hunter and his journey through a tumultuous child hood. Tune in to hear his story. Paul Lamar Hunter's true story describes "his troubled life traversed the perils of poverty, neglect, dysfunction, and even deaths. Paul describes what it was like growing up in the shadows of a famous yet detached mother whose affections were focused on the homeless shelter that she founded. Though the shelter was supposed to be a haven for the downtrodden, it was actually the breeding ground for dysfunction and despondency. Despite Paul's misfortunes and failures, his determined spirit and his indelible faith lifted him up above the fray to become the first in his family to graduate from college. Now moving full-speed ahead, Paul Lamar Hunter is living proof that neither limits nor lineage determine the quality of one's life-but faith, fortitude, and determination do."
As always I recommend purchasing his book from local Cynthia Fernandez at the Pilgrim's way (they will even run it out to your car!), or of course you can purchase this riveting book on Amazon!
