Synopsis

A homeless man on a street corner. A compassionate woman with a difficult past. An incredible story of our amazing capacity to love.Stopped at a familiar intersection on her way to work, Ginger Sprouse watched the homeless man pacing the garbage-strewn ground in his bare feet. Compelled to pull over and say hello, she was drawn to his exuberant joy and infectious smile. And his ready acceptance of her was a welcome counterpoint to her internal struggle with guilt and shame at her past. Over the next few months, Ginger would learn that Victor had been returning to that spot because it was the last place he had seen his mother—three years earlier.Motivated by her faith and their deepening friendship, Ginger set out to help Victor. When it became clear that he could not live safely on his own, she and her family offered him a permanent place in their home. What she then learned about forgiveness, humility, and love changed her forever. Kinda Like Grace is a powerful reminder that seemingly insurmountable obstacles can be overcome, that we all deserve second chances, and that each of us has an amazing capacity to love.Follow Ginger and Victor’s story with photos available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

3.5 stars. A quick, easy read. A good book that spoke about God’s forgiveness and reconciliation when there is true repentance. Ginger was so raw and honest about her mistakes and failures. I can only imagine how hard that would be to write down for the world to see. Sin however does has consequence......more

Goodreads review by Rochelle on April 09, 2025

The author’s transparency and candid openness around her own decisions and the consequences of them - good and bad - makes this a valuable lesson in personal growth. I enjoyed the many themes she discussed, contrary to other reviews, because no one’s life is a singular narrative. Our life journeys a......more

Goodreads review by Patrice on June 14, 2020

I found this book to be inspirational and filled me with hope. I see a woman on the corner I pass nearly every day. She is preaching and spreading the love of Jesus. I honk and wave every time I see her, but I’ve never stopped. I think she is homeless and may live in her suv. But I’ve never stopped.......more

I received this book "Kinda Like Grace" from NetGalley and all opinions expressed are my own. I liked this book but the formatting was crazy. It was hard to follow - some words missing from my copy and huge Do Not Duplicate all over the place. Made it hard to read. I finished it quickly. Nice Story.......more
