“I can take you almost the whole way to where you’re looking to go,” he said with a grin. When Nyles hitched a ride from Oregon to North Carolina with Izzy, he had no idea that Izzy’s words meant much more than geography.

From a reader: This is one of the most deeply heart-felt books that I have ever read. Over 3 months ago I picked up "Being a Sharefish in a Selfish World" on a Saturday to read what I thought was going to be about a missions trip to Honduras. For those of you who don't know, Sharefish is an organization that paves the way for children in a small town in Honduras to have a chance at an education. That Saturday afternoon with Sharefish was an awe inspiring experience that led me into the life of the man who started Sharefish and gave me insight to a human being who allowed himself to find the life he deserved by the grace of God. Oie Osterkamp shows all of us that you can achieve the wonderful by listening to your heart and trusting the voice inside of you that has been gifted to all mankind. This book inspired me in the deepest possible way and I highly recommend taking the time to read. It will open you heart,make you laugh, cry and give you the courage to live your dream.

Thank you Oie!!
