Rob Mitchell is one of the last “lifers” raised in an American orphanage. Left by a dysfunctional family in an Illinois children's home, he grew up with kids who were not friends but rather “co-survivors.” After becoming a Christian as a teenager, Rob found what he was looking for, home and family, in a relationship with God. Rob was able to overcome his past, forgiving his relatives and forging healthy family relationships of his own.三岁的罗比被母亲送到了孤儿院,从此他开始了对家庭的渴望与寻索,但是他的希望一次次被撕得粉碎,甚至是富有的亲人们都不愿收养他。小罗比是最后一批在美国孤儿院长大的“囚犯”之一。他的父亲自杀未遂,终生生活在精神病院中。母亲也先被送到精神病院,稳定后生活在过渡教习所。罗布被送到伊利诺伊州的儿童之家(孤儿院)。他在孤儿院生活了14年,与一起长大的孩子们不是朋友关系,而是“同样活下来了”的伙伴而已。他经历了无数的挫折,伤痕累累,就在他感到绝望之际,他从《圣经》的亮光中,从虔诚的祷告中,听到了上帝的呼唤:“叫我父亲吧。以我为家……” 从此,他不再只是一个从孤儿院出来的孩子了,他被上帝的大家庭所收养,成为属于上帝的世界大家庭中的一员。书中讲的不仅是一个小男孩儿的挣扎,更是普世性的,是每个人都必须面对的,是对孤独、恐惧、拒绝、愤怒和痛苦以及如何宽恕他人和自己的挣扎。最后祝福他找到属于自己的家。
