Meet the Publisher
I've been around Christian publishing since 1987 when I helped our ministry self-publish an important resource for Vietnam veterans and their families. That book went on to be picked up by a royalty publisher and has since sold over 250,000 copies with a million in print.
I'm glad you're here…stop by often and take advantage of all the information we make available.
Brad P –
Former Things Forgotten is beautifully written with exceptional character development. If you have spent any time in the Appalachian mountains, you can picture Tessa as a child, and her growth and experiences feel real to life.
The plot of Tessa’s life is reason enough to recommend this book, but the imagery of the thin line between the heavenly and earthly realm make this a must read. While centered in fiction, the imagery is thought provoking and provides an illustration of the unimaginable.
I had trouble putting this book down when I was reading it, and am still thinking about it a week later. This is a book that will stick with you.
