Book Description
Charles Wheeler spent his early years in the idyllic surroundings of the Lake District of northern England. But when he was eight years old his father returned from war service and the family moved south to their cramped home in north London. There they joined an "assembly of saints" of the Open Brethren, and so began eight years of a strict and exclusive religious upbringing. Sexually assaulted by an older boy, forbidden to write to his childhood sweetheart, and subtly pressurized into conversion, Charles twice came close to making his escape-first by running away to the Shetland Islands, and later, wracked by guilt over making a false conversion, by using his father's revolver. His escape was achieved when he joined the Royal Navy at the age of sixteen; but conversion to Catholicism and marriage to a Roman Catholic caused a tragic family schism, and it was not until long after his father's death that he was at last able to find intellectual equilibrium.

Second Son
Author: Edith DonDero
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059538286X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
"Second Son cannot be classified SIMPLY as a novel or a work of fiction. It is a prophetic inspiration ( whispered = DELETE) OF the Holy Spirit. Through it, in such a time as this, the Lord speaks, teaches, and reveals Himself to the searcher. For the Jew who has been taught not even to dare explore the possibility that Christ is his Messiah, it provides absolute proof. To the Catholic who has put his trust in "the church," it is an invitation to rethink the Bible's true teachings. To the purpose-driven Protestant, it establishes Jesus in His earthly deity and the cross as the restorer. To those who have heard but never sought the promise of eternal life, it is a revelation of scripture's main message-that Christ is the only way to God."-Bruce R. DeBaun, ThD What would you do if your brother began calling himself the Son of God? How would you balance family loyalty with your inability to accept his startling new ideas? James' concern for his brother increases as Pharisee opposition grows and the threat to (his brother= DELETE) Yeshua's safety becomes more critical. He sees the danger but cannot avert disaster. Overwhelmed by guilt and a sense of loss after his brother's death, James is without hope until a stranger arrives to change his life. In Second Son, author Edith DonDero explores James' unique perspective on Christ's private and public life.
