"Bringing the love of Jesus Christ to neglected and abandoned children on the continent of Africa."

Foreword

      All over the world, people are marginalized by debilitating limitations that make normalcy, in the traditional sense of the term, unattainable. They wonder how a loving God can allow people to experience such agonizing hurt, pain that just will not go away. Searching for Normalcy was written for those who ask God for change—and are still waiting.
      Steve Chance has earned the right to speak to the issue of unanswered questions. As you read through the following pages, you will encounter a man who grew up different from those around him. His playmates noticed. His teachers noticed. The girls noticed. Steve’s cerebral palsy has forced him throughout his life to wrestle with the question—what does it mean to be normal?
      Steve asks other questions as well—questions that all of us ask. Where is God when tragedy strikes? When I feel worthless? When others reject me? His answers will surprise you and encourage you.
      His story will touch your life. Steve is well known as an overcomer. His achievements are many. He has excelled in the classroom. He is a compelling speaker. And now, in his first book, he has proven himself to be a gifted writer.
      If you have a disability, you need this book. If you know someone with a disability, you need this book. If you, like me, do not have a disability, yet wrestle with your own “thorn in the flesh,” then you too need this book.
      And when you finish reading it, share this book with a friend. You’ll get a hearty thank you in return!
