{"product_id":"mission-josh-maready-9781479206834","title":"Mission: The True Story of a Mormon Missionary","description":"Who rides a bike in a white shirt and tie? Must be the Mormons. Be honest - did you pretend you weren't home the last time they came to your door? Why would these otherwise normal guys and girls volunteer - even pay for the chance - to go door-to-door peddling religion? What's their motivation? What makes them tick? Join Josh Maready, a North Carolina boy raised in the Bible-Belt South, as he leaves behind his family, his friends, and his skateboard to serve a two-year mission for the Mormon Church in Portland, Oregon. With an open heart and some pretty naive assumptions, he embraces the unknown and learns that missionary work is about a lot more than riding a bike and knocking on doors. Through laughter and tears, Josh's journey of triumph and defeat demystifies a religion often miscast by stereotype and provides an honest, no-holds-barred look at the life of a Mormon missionary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Josh Maready\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1479206830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781479206834\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.44d","brand":"Josh Maready","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442278117631,"sku":"9781479206834","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_38a59413-3074-4f0e-ac6f-cdeae92d4b2b.jpg?v=1777196316","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mission-josh-maready-9781479206834","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
