Description: "Tells the story of what happened when a movie star known for his portrayal of Jesus Christ in The Passion of the Christ--Jim Caviezel-- looked into [successful businessman Andrew LaVallee's] eyes one day and challenged him just as Christ challenged the rich young man. He dared Andy to visit Medjugorje, an obscure, poor village in Croatia, where for over thirty years it has been alleged that the Virgin Mary has been visiting Earth and calling her children to live lives of prayer, penance, and fasting. Andy's first reaction was predictable: 'No way am I flying fifteen hours to pray a rosary.' But little by little, Our Lady's call to Andy opened his heart and he boarded that plane, prayed that rosary--and his life has never been the same"--Amazon.com.
