Our protagonist, Sarah Chang, knows this struggle all too well. Having experienced the devastating effects of addiction firsthand, she vowed to make a difference. Drawing from her own past, Sarah made it her mission to shed light on these hidden drug dens, exposing the realities faced by those trapped within their clutches.

A Determined Call to Action

Armed with compassion and a relentless drive for change, Sarah began her one-woman crusade against the darkness of Hong Kong's drug dens. She started by immersing herself in the lives of addicts, gaining their trust, and documenting their stories.

Through her vivid accounts, Sarah painted a harrowing picture of addiction's hold on the people of Hong Kong. Her writing provided a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the daily struggles faced by individuals battling substance abuse.

Shattering Stigmas

As she delved deeper into her mission, Sarah realized that the battle extended beyond the physical addiction – it also involved fighting against the societal stigma associated with drug abuse. Armed with the power of her words, she aimed to destigmatize addiction and encourage empathy and understanding.

Through heartfelt articles and captivating photographs, Sarah shed light on the real faces of addiction – everyday people caught in a web of despair. Her work humanized those affected, illustrating that addiction is not a choice, but a disease that requires support and treatment.

Awareness and Advocacy

With each article, Sarah's voice grew stronger, resonating with readers across Hong Kong and beyond. Her work not only raised awareness about the hidden drug dens but also ignited a conversation. People began discussing addiction openly, challenging societal norms, and advocating for change.

Sarah's articles attracted attention from local media outlets, giving her platform a wider reach. Soon, her efforts were recognized by organizations fighting against substance abuse, and she became a symbol of hope for individuals seeking help.

Empowering Others

Driven by her own struggles and triumphs, Sarah founded a support group for those affected by addiction. This safe space provided a non-judgmental environment where individuals could share their experiences, find encouragement, and receive guidance.

Through her group, Sarah empowered others to take control of their lives and seek the help they needed. She organized counseling sessions, addiction recovery programs, and educational workshops to equip individuals with the tools necessary to overcome their addictions.

A Light in the Darkness

Sarah continues to be a beacon of hope in Hong Kong, lighting up the dark corners plagued by drug dens. Her unwavering determination and empathy have inspired a ripple effect of change throughout the city.

The struggle against the darkness of Hong Kong's drug dens remains ongoing, but Sarah's tireless efforts have made a significant impact. With her articles, advocacy work, and support group, she has become a force for change, reminding us all that even in the bleakest of circumstances, there is always hope.

Inside Hong Kong was the infamous Walled City. Strangers were not welcome there. Police hesitated to enter. It was a haven of filth, crime, and sin. Prostitution, pornography, and drug addiction flourished. Jackie Pullinger had grown up believing that if she put her trust in God, He would lead her. When she was twenty years old, God called her to the Walled City. She obeyed. And as she spoke of Jesus Christ, brutal hoods were converted, prostitutes retired from their trade, and heroin junkies found new power that freed them from the bondage of drug addiction. Hundreds discovered new life in Christ. Chasing the Dragon tells the whole amazing story exactly as it happened. Equally amazing has been the reach of this ministry, now detailed in this updated and revised edition. From Hong Kong to the Philippines, Thailand, and beyond, the ministry that started with Jackie and her friends taking people in to live and care for them has continued and developed to form the present St. Stephen's Society. Readers will be inspired by this tale of trust and loving like Jesus.
