and around the globe, Pope Francis has called national leaders to work together to address this crisis. We urge you to demonstrate bold leadership in addressing the climate crisis by honoring the Paris Agreement, contributing to the Green Climate Fund, and implementing the Clean Power Plan.īecause climate change is already harming millions of people across the U.S.

I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.As members of the Catholic community in the United States, we are praying that your presidency may be blessed with wisdom and compassion. I would strongly suggest placing this author as well as this book on your reading list. I can’t say I’ve had experience with “drinking the kool-aid”, but I’ve known a few people who have gotten so caught up religion and following A MAN that they lose focus on THE MAN.īy the time you’re at the end, you’re left breathing hard and in a hurry to get to the very end because you’re trying to figure it all out. The backdrop for the story is the corruption within a very large Cult-type Mega Church. Each character plays an integral part in the story. The characters are so well developed you can’t help but wonder how this author came up with this stuff. The story leads you on a fast paced journey of “who done it”? Just when you think you have it all figured out, up jumps another piece of information which makes you second guess your first guess. On the anniversary of his father’s death, several years later he’s confronted by a stranger who wants to help him solve the mystery behind his father’s death. The son, Anthony, goes on to become a young man. This family must go on to learn to live without the beloved dad and sports writer by trade. Leaving behind to mourn his death are the son, a teen daughter and a wife. Out of nowhere the father is shot and left to die in his sons arms. The book starts out with a regular day of fishing with a father and teen aged son.

(Well, I hope I DON’T anybody like at least one character in the book) The characters were people you would think are your average next door people. The story line was something any reader could follow and believe. The book takes place in Atlanta, GA and in the midst of the rise of Mega Churches in this country, the book was very well written and developed. Lively is just one word I would use to describe the book and the discussion. This book was the topic of discussion for this month with In The Company of 12.
