By Robert Natale with Kevin Natale<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

On a typical Wednesday afternoon in January 1994, fourteen-year-old Kevin Natale was waiting for his coach to pick him up for basketball practice. A loud knock at the front door. A neighbor barging through. One bullet. Kevin’s life as a freshman athlete ended that afternoon, replaced by the life of a quadriplegic boy whose family would never be the same again.<\/p>

One Shot, One Bullet<\/em>\u00a0is the story of what happened next. Told by Kevin’s father Robert, with Kevin’s own words woven throughout from the memoirs he had been writing for years before his death in 2022. It is a family’s account of trauma, addiction, recovery, faith, and the radical decision to forgive the man who pulled the trigger.<\/p>

This is not a book about a boy who was shot. It is a book about what one family learned about love, faith, and forgiveness over twenty-eight years. Every copy sold helps support the work of Founded on Forgiveness.<\/p>

“If you have ever suffered a personal trauma, betrayal, or injury this book is for you. From the first sentence of the preface, you are drawn into a family’s struggle with unexpected trauma. ONE SHOT is a must read if you find yourself stuck in victimhood. It is a true journey through darkness and into the light.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

“This book isn’t just one family’s story. It’s a roadmap for anyone struggling to find peace after trauma. It shows us that forgiveness is not weakness, it’s a radical act of freedom.”<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
