Mamma Foglio, her cantankerous husband, and ten rambunctious
kids were poor. In fact, they were so poor that the poor people
called them poor. Then one day the Lord burst into their lives,
in the form of another, equally poor, equally large and
tumultuous Italian-American family who stormed into their home
and evangelized them.
Thus begins what has got to be the most
hilarious—as well as warm-hearted and frequently
deeply-moving—testimony ever given to the glory of the Lord.
You'll cry, you'll chuckle, you may even laugh out loud at this
remarkable woman who loved Jesus Christ without reservation and
believed He was willing to do anything you asked Him to that
would glorify God.
"I have read many books during my lifetime, but
rarely have I read a book that has made an impact on me like
Frank Foglio's masterpiece, Hey, God! The spiritual
message contained in the book not only transcends organized
religious groups, but is entirely blind to all national,
political, racial, social, and economic boundaries.
"I am convinced that Frank's mother, the heroine of this book
and the one who inspired its title, must be included among the
giants of our faith. She is one of the best examples of the
overpowering influence of the Living God, both in her own life
and in the lives of those she touched.
"Frank Foglio's style of writing is singular and fascinating.
Once started, it is impossible to lay the book down. It is a
moving and inspiring message that I am convinced will have a
transforming effect on countless lives." Dr. Herbert H. Tarson,
National University, San Diego, CA. |
