"If a homeless man froze to death on the steps of a church, what would it change?"“Shaken Awake!” is the story of a church in downtown Atlanta, Georgia faced with a dwindling and aging congregation that has been forced to shut down the majority of their building and dismissed much of its staff. With limited funds, they shutter all of their ministries and programs leaving only a couple adult Sunday School classes and a Sunday morning worship service. When a homeless man freezes to death on the steps of their sanctuary, the church begins to re-examine their mission and priorities.

Allen Madding is a follower of the way, writer, blogger, guitar player, Harley Davidson motorcycle rider, hiker, traveler, Atlanta Braves and Dallas Cowboys fan, and an information technology professional who lives with his wife Allison in St. Petersburg, Florida. He volunteers with Feed St. Pete, a food pantry providing food to struggling families in Pinellas County, Florida. He grew up in rural South Georgia where he developed a love for hunting, fishing, and racing cars. He raced short track stock cars for nine years while operating a local computer store in his hometown. He moved to Atlanta in 2000 taking a fulltime job in Information Technology management, and began writing weekly contributions for Speedway Media and then Insider Racing News. He has actively supported Habitat for Humanity participating in over 14 home builds. After a short-term mission trip to Venezuela in 2011, he became keenly aware of the level of hunger in his community and began seeking a way to contribute. Allen and Allison launched Feed the Hungry Forsyth, Inc., a nonprofit food rescue organization in Cumming, Georgia, in December 2011 to collect unsold food from area restaurants and delivering to community food pantries.
