A chance meeting between two men sparked an inseparable friendship and an inspirational book.

Those two friends were in Little Rock Thursday night to share their story.  The 1,200 seat auditorium was packed Thursday night to listen to Ron Hall and Denver Moore who wrote the book, "Same Kind of Different as Me"...a story about an international art dealer and a homeless man who became friends.

"I think it's a God led story. There is a message these men need to tell to our community, our nation. And it's getting told. And I think people's minds are gonna change and I think people's hearts are gonna change and that's what's important," IHN Network Director, Janet Nelson said.

Our own Sonseeahray Tonsall was the emcee and is a member of the Interfaith Hospitality Network who sponsored this event.
