Free Christian Stuff Jared Wilson
I almost never share Christian Fiction freebies, because I usually donât know if theyâre any good. This FREE eBook novel is an exception. While I have not actually read it, its author has written a number of non-fiction titles that are great including The Explicit Gospel, Gospel Deeps, and The Pastorâs Justification: Applying the Work of Christ in Your Life and Ministry (all published by Crossway). In other words, I am recommending this based on the authorâs theological beliefs, which I think are important to the making of a Christ-exalting novel.
Hereâs a blurb about the novelâs story:
Something strange is happening in Houston and its rural suburb, Trumbull. It starts with the bizarre mutilation of a farmerâs cow, sparking rumors of UFO sightings and alien visitations. Itâs all an annoyance for the police, who would prefer to focus on the recent murders in the area. Mike Walsh is a journalist with a nagging editor and a troubled marriage who finds himself inexorably drawn into the deeper story creeping up on all who dare get close enough: a grizzled small town police captain, a depressed journalist, a disillusioned pastor, and a little old man. They are unlikely allies against the otherworld.
And hereâs one reviewerâs take on it from Amazon.com:
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I bought it this morning and couldnât put it down until I finished it this afternoon. Wilson does a great job making a Christian novel that is Gospel-Centered, profound, entertaining, addictive, and unpredictable. In a world where Christian fiction is apparently controlled by middle-aged Amish women, Otherworld stands head and shoulders above itâs competition. Do yourself a favor and get it.
