From the Back Cover
The Hands and Feet Project, an orphanage founded by the band members for impoverished children who desperately lack the resources most of us take for granted. Although Haiti is only an hour away, it is one of the poorest nations in the world. Superstition and voodoo still cast their spells over the Haitian people. Through this travelogue-style journal, full of journal entries and personal stories, you’ll discover what it’s like to live in the embattled country of Haiti – and how it is possible to change the world, one child at a time. In fact, the core admonition in James is to rescue the orphans from their suffering. When you impact the lives of orphans, you impact future leaders of communities, cities and a nation. Find purpose and passion in changing the world through God’s love as you make this exciting trip with Audio Adrenaline!
About the Author

Audio Adrenaline took the Contemporary Christian Music world by storm in the 1990s with their popular fusion of rap, rock and funk, and went on to release eight full-length albums, a live DVD, and a “best of” recording that includes “Big House,” named #1 Song of the Decade for the 1990s by CCM. The band has also won multiple Dove Awards, and had 17 number one hits. Audio Adrenaline continues to tour and provide listeners with a unique brand of thought-provoking, high-voltage music.
