Their journey with the homeless started with RATSthe size of cats that can eat through tin cans and coolers. Its Pittsburgh, 2016, not a far off third world country, but thats what it seems like because theyre talking about feeding people on the streets outsidein the middle of winter. Encounter people living as no person should, hear their stories, and become transformed in the process. 
And This Is How It Ends is the emotionally gripping true-story of a group of volunteers who started off serving meals in a park, and eventually began visiting homeless camps, interrupting drug deals, and encountering street fights.
Are the homeless a problem, or are they people with lives and stories just like you?
Praise For ...And This Is How It Ends
"With keen insight and evident compassion, Jen Sky narrates her journey of coming to know, understand, befriend, and care for the women, children, and men who live at the margins of our cities. The stories she shares are as intense as they are enlightening. Jen doesn't shy away from the complexities and messiness, but instead seeks to see clearly, asking "What does it mean to really love my neighbors as myself?" and "What does it really mean to be an advocate for those on the margins?" All who read this book will come away changed, and inspired to go and do likewise."
 --Michael Yankoski, Author of Under the Overpass
"Jen Sky began by asking herself what she could do to help the homeless people she saw wandering the streets of her town, sleeping under the bridges and hiding in the trees of the local parks. As we follow her on this compassionate and eye-opening journey, we begin to see the homeless as individuals who have fallen out of relationship with themselves and with those around them.

Jen and her neighbors banded together to offer food and comfort where and when it was most needed. This simple act of kindness opened the doorway to a world that most of us ignore or do not want to enter.

The insights she has gained are invaluable to anyone who has glimpsed a homeless person spending the night out in the open and asked: 'What can I do to help?'"
 --Robin Moore- Author and Faculty Member, The Graduate Institute for Writing and Oral Traditions  Author of the Year, PA School Librarians Association
"Jen Sky's honest sharing allows the reader to know the homeless - not just of them. Her accounts and observations lead us to face a truth we are afraid to see. The author admits there is no easy answer to all the issues involved in this ministry, but she is wise enough to leave the unanswered questions in the hands of God."
 --Mary "Mayme" Bulger, Author of GOD EXPECTS ME, Living the Reality of Life by Embracing the Reality of God
"Not only a beautiful testament to the serving nature of those who desire to reach those in need, but a story of personal transformation. Jen Sky truly catches us the contradictions of the heart in the tender situations we encounter when helping the homeless. Oh how I love this book!"
 --Dana Falletti, Author of Beautiful Secret and The Whisper Trilogy
