It's impossible to know him and not become a little more excited about life. He is an inspiring man permeated by joy, unafraid of sorrow, full of vitality and life! His sense of humor is infectious and so is his story. He grew up, he says, at "belt-buckle level" and stayed there until Kevan's beloved posse decided to leave his wheelchair at the Atlanta airport, board a plane for France, and have his friends carry him around Europe to accomplish their dream to see the world together! Kevan's beloved posse traveled to Paris, England, and Ireland where, in the climax of their adventure, they scale 600 feet up to the 1,400-year-old monastic fortress of Skellig Michael. In WE CARRY KEVAN the reader sits with Kevan, one head-level above everyone else for the first time in his life and enjoys camaraderie unlike anything most people ever experience. Along the way they encounter the curiosity and beauty of strangers, the human family disarmed by grace, and the constant love of God so rich and beautiful in the company of good friends. WE CARRY KEVAN displays the profound power of friendship and self-sacrifice"--Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Foreword / by Andrew Peterson -- Prologue: Flight -- Point of departure -- Laying out the fleece -- Plans and preparations -- Gathering the crew -- Gearing up -- Learning to fly -- Ready for takeoff -- Paris -- The city of light -- Band of gypsies -- Crossing the Channel -- In search of the boy who never grows up -- Into the English wild -- Turbulence -- Skellig Michael -- Ascent -- The view from here -- Reentry -- Epilogue: There and back again. 600 10 $a Chandler, Kevan, $d 1986- 600 10 $a Chandler, Kevan, $d 1986- $x Travel $z Europe. 650 0 $a Paraplegics $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a People with disabilities $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a People with disabilities $x Travel $z Europe. 650 0 $a Spinal muscular atrophy. 650 0 $a Male friendship $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Christian men $x Conduct of life. 941 $a 4 952 $l FWPE284 $d 20231019010629.0 952 $l S3PA501 $d 20221105105756.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20220202012644.0 952 $l RVPB135 $d 20191214033135.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0BFD39C81E4011EAA58222FC96128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
