Echoes of the Favela: A Story of Hope and Renewal: An Inspirational Christian Fiction of Faith in Ac

Pastor Basílio gives up his safe, textbook faith in Minas Gerais and lands in Rio's Morro da Esperança-where poverty, danger and raw human spirit collide. He thought he knew ministry. Spoiler: true faith is built with muddy boots and open hands.

Follow his journey from idealistic newcomer to humble servant-leader as he learns to listen, to build the "House of Hope" brick by brick, and to empower young leaders who refuse to stay broken. This isn't your grandma's sermon-it's a front-row seat to faith in action, community transformation and the power of servant leadership.
