Albert shares the incredible story of growing up under Nazi occupation in the Hague, Netherlands, and the malnutrition and tuberculosis that followed.

Being bedridden for years allowed a deep and profound anger at God to fester. But a simple challenge from a friend to say thanks even when he didn't feel like it transformed Albert from being angry at God to being a Jesus follower.

Albert was so full of gratitude he went all over the world sharing business by the Bible principles.

In part 1, hear the moving story of enduring World War II and the struggle for survival. Learn how Albert went from missing three years of school due to hospitalization to becoming a welder, to emigrating to the US, then leaving his lucrative career for half the pay, as a result of being recruited for a job at a "strange" company called IBM.
