This book has an amazing adventure of the life of Peter Filakouridis. He was raised in a very prosperous Greek family in the Greek community of Cairo, Egypt. During this period of time, the Greek community was large with a friendly influence on the Egyptians. When the Egyptian government turned against all the foreigners, they were forced to leave the country and surrender all their property to the Egyptian government. The Filakouridis family went to Greece and settled on the island of Rhodes, where they had some poor relatives.

Peter, at the age of nineteen, graduated from the Polytech Marine Engineering School and started traveling all over the world with Greek merchant ships. He reached the rank of second engineer. He went through many storms and adventures while on the ships. After passing through many ports, he finally managed to stay in America, which was the dream of his life. Through many difficulties and trials, God prepared his heart, and in God's time, Peter came in contact with Christian people. At one of the church meetings he attended, he received Christ as his personal Savior, and his life turned a different direction. After many years, he became a pastor of the very church that he got saved in: the Greek Apostolic Church of Los Angeles with various ministries.
