Official synopsis Publisher
Back in the car and heading to Joe’s
place, Joe noticed a Bible sitting between them in the seat. Grace detected his
glance: “Do you read the Good Book often?” she asked Joe.
“No ma’am; not since I was a little boy,” Joe replied through a yawn.
“Well, if you don’t have one you can have mine,” she told him with a cheery
grin.
Joe was bemused. “No, that’s okay. I have one. My mom got it for me when I was
six years old.”
Grace looked at him. “And you still have it? That’s amazing.”
Joe didn’t understand what was so amazing about it. “It’s in a box somewhere.”
They were pulling into the apartment complex as Grace said, “I learn something
new about God every time I read the Word.”
Undoing his
seatbelt Joe mumbled, “I know all I need to know about God.”
Joe Morgan
wakes up from nightmares about the day in church when he was ten years old and
the pastor yelled about a sin that can’t be forgiven. Since then, he has left
the idea of God far behind, much more concerned with taking care of his self
than with running after a Being who damns His creatures to hell. Joe lives the
small town life, going to the same bar after work every week with his friend
Ray and holding back his feelings for his coworker, Nicole. He’s too caught up
in the relationship they already have to risk pushing it into romance. What Joe
doesn’t know is that everything is about to change—what he thinks about Nicole,
about himself and most of all, about God. How can a stolen truck and two men in
the hospital change Joe’s humdrum life? Read Tortured Soul to find out.
