The Rocket's Red Glare
Author: Kent A. Messer
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595136990
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
In 1982 a high school shooting shook the community of Sabreton, Pennsylvania. A year later signs of the shooting had been swept clean and students seemed to take events in stride. For Gary, an insecure 1983 Sabreton freshman, this only added to his anxiety as he began what promised to be a humiliating year of school. The Rocket’s Red Glare is a story of the friendships that sustained, inspired and ultimately carried Gary through those turbulent years. He and his friends were, for the most part, middle class kids who were drawn to the New Wave and Punk music popular at that time. For them, drinking, dancing, and loving it all seemed so right but ended so badly. Five years after high school Gary is now on his own. He is an aspiring artist balancing a hatred for his corporate day job with his live-in girlfriend’s desire for stability. But soon his world will change when he receives a call from an old friend. An impromptu road trip across America, a tape of a long forgotten band and a suicide force him to face the question of whether he has really survived anything.

Rocketships to Heaven and the Sos Fuel Station
Author: Peggy Sue Yarber
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing
ISBN: 160860246X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 25
Book Description
"Who made God? Who created heaven?" "How big is God?" Every curious mind wonders about these questions - especially young minds. So what do we do when asked questions that do not have simple answers? Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station is a vehicle to begin the conversation. This eye-opening journey begins with a dialogue between a boy and his mother. He is allowed to find answers within himself. The child's toy rocketship becomes a conduit for his faith in God. By traveling in the rocketship to the Save-Our-Souls Fuel Station, he fills the spiritual tank needed for the trip to heaven. This enlightening tale demonstrates the remarkable ability of children to take hugely complex concepts and absorb the multifaceted ideas well enough to make the notions their own. Using the down-to-earth toy rocketship, Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station begins a lifelong dialogue of faith that will soar alongside the child and parents for years. The questions of belief and conviction will be ever constant in a life of a Christian and so will the relevance of the ideas presented in this story. Author Bio: Author Peggy Sue Yarber, PhD, lives with her husband and two daughters in southern California, where she is an educator. She has published two other novels, The Judas Ride and TARE. Please visit her website and comment on topics such as parenting, Christianity and redemption. http: //www.psyarber.com/home.html and http: //beyondwordsbookreviews.blogspot.com/
