Amazon.com description: Product Description: A New York Times Bestseller

"God has plans for you." It was a message Carlos Ray Norris heard from his mother many times, but no one could have foreseen the extraordinary life he had before him. The baby who was not expected to survive would also overcome poverty, shyness, and an alcoholic father to become a Karate World Champion, a movie and television star, and a great humanitarian. This is his story.
