Description

by Thornton Mark Spain (Author), Ernest Ernie Overstreet (Author)

A compelling story-How the Co-Author's longtime friend, a US Marine, with life's curves, strikes, and home runs, keeps his heart on God and his eyes on the ball!

Thornton "Mark" Spain Ernest "Ernie" Overstreet

Thornton "Mark" Spain: Author and MSI Founding Director

Ernest "Ernie" Overstreet: Co-Author and MSI President, has nearly sixty years of writing and graphic design experience on a diverse portfolio of projects.

Forward by Terry Bosgra, well-known Honolulu resident, successful retired Christian businessman and Trilogy author.

The author's journey unfolds as he travels from the Prairies of the Midwest as a boy to living today in the Hawaiian Paradise. His life principles, acquired from Christian ethics learned as a youth, were perfected in the Marine Corps.

The US deployed Agent Orange herbicide in Vietnam during the war. The dioxins, which persist in the soil today, have adversely impacted its agricultural capability. The author's exposure to this toxic defoliant had profound consequences, creating colon cancer and other health effects. These issues, plus the traumatic events of the war, also resulted in PTSD. With a desire to find ways to heal Vietnam's agriculture, the book explains how their new joint organization, Mission Sunrise Initiative, will make this a reality.
