Formerly homeless, now best-selling author visits Chattanooga to spark inspiration
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF)- Formerly homeless, now best-selling author, Frank Mckinney, visited Chattanooga today as part of a 25-city tour in hopes to spark inspiration within the homeless population.
Sunday at 11a.m., the author visited Chattanooga’s Community Kitchen.
He has been working with the organization to search for hard-working, unhoused individuals, whose lives could be turned around by his support.
He also planned to make a donation to the organization itself- to further it’s mission of supporting the growing number of unhoused community members.
“If you look over my shoulder, we’re in the middle of a tent city. You can imagine that many of these people are barely hanging on by a thread. I was once homeless, so the intent of this tour is very simple. It’s to walk in that front door, deliver about a 30 minute message based around overcoming financial, physical, spiritual or relational adversity- overcoming that when you are barely hanging on by a thread,” said best-selling author, Frank Mckinney.
His book is called “Adversitology: Overcoming Adversity When You’re Hanging on by a Thread.”
If you’d like to read his book for yourself, it is available on Amazon here.
