About this audiobook
What would you do if a natural disaster decimated a huge part of your country? After Japan’s catastrophic Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, Roger Lowther’s family and community found themselves reeling from a series of devastating blows: magnitude 9.0 earthquake, monstrous 120 foot tsunami, exploding nuclear power plants, tens of thousands dead, hundreds of thousands homeless. How can you demonstrate God’s presence and goodness to people living in devastation around you? How do you find hope in the middle of so much despair? In the aftermath of one of the worst natural disasters in history, music had a healing power never dreamed possible. An electrifying sense of hope, almost tangible, wafted through the air. In those moments, beauty won over fear and despair. These stories of the aroma of God’s beauty and presence in the aftermath and devastation will encourage you, inspire you, and change you.
