Description: When Clarence Walker, the Reverend Marshall Walker's son, leaves his father's church and joins his rival Pastor George Landris' mega-church, his decision leads to a string of revelations that reach deep into the heart of the congregation, as well as into the lives of his own family members.
Notes: The sixth scripture inspired installment of Griggs's saga (Goodness and Mercy; Blessed Trinity) again follows the adventures of the friends and family of Pastor George Landris and his rival, the Reverend Marshall Walker. Marshall's son has upset his father by defecting to Landris's mega-church in Birmingham, Alabama but another plot twist investigates the mystery of 99-year-old Ransom Perdue who might be the long-lost father of not one but two women. Former exotic dancer Garbrielle Mercedes's very sweet courtship with Dr. Zachary Morgan is tested not only by her past but by Leslie, his disapproving mother, and a horde of free-loading relatives who arrive on her doorstep. Full of crazy church politics and a huge cast, Griggs keeps this on-going story alive by addressing the challenges of living by Biblical rules with homespun humor.-Publishers Weekly.
