The Broker and the Bum Back Cover Copy: Matt is a powerful hedge fund manager in New York City. Liam is a down-on-his-luck homeless man that spends his days watching everyone else pass him by. Their worlds are completely separate, until a tragic event leaves one person's future in shambles, and the other finds the peace that they have sought after for so long. "The Broker and the Bum" is a modern version of Jesus' famous story from Luke 16, complete with all the same themes of the original. It's a story of benevolence, greed, and the perils of ignoring those that God wants us to notice. Check out "Broker and the Bum," the first book in the brand new "Parable Series" from author Brady Cook, and begin to see the world through different eyes.
