| Publisher Description: A broken marriage, a broken church, and a broken faith make a broken man. Jeff Hill's life as God's man, standing tall and preaching God's word while ministering to his flock vanished when Robyn vanished into the night. Twin Oaks is a southern town in the Pee Dee region of North Carolina that time passed by. Most of the town attends the Baptist church and they sing the old-time hymns and allow only married men to serve as deacons. They prefer their preacher to read from the King James Version, visit the old folks, and never mention politics from the pulpit. To their horror the preacher's wife "up and left him." The deacons are under pressure to fire Jeff. The Methodist pastor is in love with him, and the rich matron of the town is secretly aiding Barbara to win over Jeff. Alone and penniless, Jeff is certain that God, and the love of his life have abandoned him. But have they? God's Broken Man could be lifted from the unofficial history of many churches. Few know the truth of the sorrow, and hurt inflicted on those called Pastor. Sometimes it is deserved, sometimes not. The official church history says nothing of God's broken man with the broken heart. |
