in the midst of...
if* ifi suffering
A hemophiliac at birth, Steve contracted the HIV virus through a blood transfusion in the early 80's. Faced with a life that offered little promise and a death that appeared close at hand, Steve turned to a personal relational with GOD. As a result Steve has found hope in the midst of incredible suffering. Even though Steve is dying of AIDS, he has chosen to spend the remaining months of his life telling people how they can find hope and face eternity with confidence and peace. Speaking from his own experience, Steve Sawyer contrasts the harsh reality of death with the sustaining power of a real and lasting hope.
