Book Description
A person who is a preacher is a person people look up to because that person represents God. The story that you are about to read is about Reverend Solomon Jack, his wife Romania, and their three sons Peter, Johnny, and David. I tagged them the miserable, the humble, and the terrible. Peter the miserable because he never listened to his parents. They always had to bail him out of trouble. The day he left to join the army, his parents were so happy because he was a bad influence on Johnny. David the humble because he was the youngest, but he never gave his parents any trouble. He was the youngest, but he never gave his parents any problems. It seemed like they did not pay much attention to him. But being the youngest, everyone loved him. Johnny I call the terrible because he gave his parents the most trouble. But in spite of his bad habits, his mother loved him to death. He could do no wrong in her eyes, not only to his mother but also to everyone who loved Johnny. He was just that type of person. He caused his father to lose his church and he caused his mother's death. What is so amazing is that Jesus died to save us from our sins, but it took Romania's death for Johnny to give his heart to Christ. Romania was a praying woman. She prayed for her sons' night and day. I know that she will be happy when her sons join her in heaven.

Book Description
In Son of a Preacher Man Jay Bakker, son of famous televangelists Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker, tells the compelling story of growing up in the glaring lights of a television studio. It's all here: the Bakker family's public disgrace, the fall of the PTL (Praise The Lord) media empire, and Bakker's subsequent plunge into a morass of anxiety and selfdestruction. But Son of a Preacher Man is more than a tell-all -- it is a story that dramatizes the human toll of this tragedy on the Bakker family, with insight into the seismic shifts that nearly destroyed his father and wrecked his parents' longtime marriage. It is the story of a prodigal son's return to the true meaning of God's love and acceptance. It is the story of a boy who was lost, but on the journey back from ruin finds a better way to understand and live life. It is the story of discovering God's grace and of becoming a man. Despite years of disillusionment, alcoholism, and heartbreak, Bakker managed to continue on his spiritual quest. First he worked to redeem his father...then his faith. Bakker began his service with Revolution, a ministry for skateboarders, punk rockers, and hippiesthe street kids he knew best. He shared the message that saved his life -- the message of Jesus that God's love is infinitely generous. Now Bakker has a large and growing ministry among the tattooed and pierced of downtown Atlanta who feel rejected by the traditional Church yet flock to hear his message of grace and love. Ultimately, Son of a Preacher Man is a story about resurrection -- of one lost young man, of his disgraced and imprisoned father, and of the hope that can't be destroyed by the machinations of power-hungry preachers, The long, lonely road that Bakker traveled taught him that you can't earn or make yourself worthy of the love of God, but if you are willing to let go and open up, that infinite love is waiting to welcome you home with open arms.

Book Description
John Wesley Hardin was the son of a Methodist minister who named his second boy after the founder of his church. The Reverend wanted Wes to become a man of faith; along the way the Preacherman's son drifted. By the time Wes was 15 he shot and killed 4 men.

Book Description
Jason Banning is a wreck. His leg's been blown to hell in Afghanistan, his boyfriend just left him and took the dog, and now he's back in his hometown of Pinehurst, Washington, a place that holds nothing but wretched memories...and Nathan Tull. Nathan Tull, whose life Jason ruined. Nathan Tull, who will never believe Jason did what he did for a greater good. Nathan Tull, whose reverend father runs the gay conversion therapy camp that Jason once sought to bring downat any cost. Nathan Tull is trying to live a quiet life. Four years ago, when Nate was a prospective student visiting UW, his world collapsed when senior Jason Banning slept with him, filmed it, and put the footage online. A painful public outing and a crisis of faith later, Nate has finally begun to heal. Cured of the "phantoms" that plagued him for years, he now has a girlfriend, a counselor job at his dad's camp, and the constant, loving support of his father. But when he learns Jason is back in town, his carefully constructed identity begins to crumble. As desperate to reconcile his love for God with his attraction to men as Jason is to make sense of the damage he's done, Nate finds himself walking a dangerous line. On one side lies the righteous life he committed himself to in the wake of his public humiliation. On the other is the sin he committed with Jason Banning, and the phantoms that won't let him be. But is there a path that can bridge those two worlds--where his faith and his identity as a gay man aren't mutually exclusive? And can he walk that path with the man who betrayed him?
