The author, Chester Yuan, would have never had the opportunities afforded to him without the momentous and life changing decision by his mother. He couldn’t have dreamt of two successful careers in corporate America and pastoral ministry nor could he have retired comfortably with his own family in Virginia had his mother not made her courageous escape of his mother from China. This author is filled with gratitude for his amazing mother and God for His providence.
