Sizzling - Dale Allan’s New Political Thriller A Prayer For The Devil

Did Dale Allan's New Political Thriller Foretell of the Terrorist Attacks in Boston?

The Similarities are Uncanny!

Even though Allan's Boston-based novel was written before the marathon terrorist attacks, the similarities with the tragic real-life events of that day are hard to ignore. 

Allan states, "As soon as the bombing took place, my phone started ringing and I began receiving tons of text messages from friends, family members and fans."

A Prayer For The Devil has been described as a fast-paced political thriller. It follows the life of a priest whose brother is killed in a terrorist attack in Boston, but the similarities don't stop there. The book deals with the dark side of radical Islam, with a fictional terrorist who attended American schools and even the worshiped at the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center. 

 Some call it 'sizzling' and others hail it an 'important cultural marker'. In short, Dale Allan's debut novel has done a whole lot more than simply test the literary waters. Its cultural significance adds weight to what could be the most powerful new release this year. 

Allan's novel is proving a magnet for 2013's best book awards, even winning multiple genres in the same competition. Depicting the compelling and thought-provoking intersection between faith and justice, 'A Prayer for the Devil' is allowing the author to stake his claim as a literary force to be reckoned with.

But let the awards do the talking. To date, 'A Prayer for the Devil' has been a winner in three categories of the National Indie Excellence Book Awards, awarded Silver for Best Thriller and Suspense in the Book Of The Year Awards by Foreword Reviews, achieved finalist positions in two categories of the International Book Awards and even a 'Top 10' fiction place at the Paris Book Festival. Due to an overwhelming call from readers to make this a movie, and preliminary queries from Hollywood movie producers, Dale Allan has just completed the screenplay for this exciting tale.

Synopsis:
Twin brothers Luke and Aaron Miller could not lead more different lives. Aaron is a rising political star who manages the campaign of a man many believe will be the nation's next president. Luke, on the other hand entered the priesthood. When Aaron and the candidate he supports are killed in a bombing at a presidential stump speech, the Miller family's core is destroyed. Fear of a terrorist threat grips the nation, but the FBI and the press seem more focused on the death of a presidential candidate than on the other innocent victims like Aaron. Suddenly, Luke begins to feel the lure of a vengeance that is stronger than the bond of faith.
As he falls deeper into the abyss of political intrigue that surrounded his brother's mysterious professional life, Luke is tempted to break his promise to God and reassess his own sense of right and wrong. Luke's comfortable life in Boston collides with the faraway world of the Middle East as he sets out on a journey to unravel the truth behind Aaron's murder. Will he take an eye for an eye? Luke's journey through his own darkness propels him to a shocking ending that will leave readers breathless.

As the author explains, his narrative is unintentionally but powerfully timely, "This book reflects the current climate we live in via a suspenseful plot line with many unexpected twists and turns.  It shows the sharp contrasts between moderate Muslims and the far reaching aspects of Sharia Law," says Allan. Continuing, "The subject matter is resonating very strongly with readers. We can't ignore the current debate between faith and justice, so hopefully my narrative will give readers something to think about well after they finish the book."

PR - Christian Author Robert Bernecker

For Immediate Release
CBM Christian Author Press Release

Robert Bernecker of Waxahachie, Texas releases Who's Your Father? – a revolutionary book that challenges readers to develop a radically different perspective of God. Bernecker's new work is an amazing eye-opener for Christians everywhere. Rich in Scripture, and written in a well-informed and easy-to-understand manner, this book will powerfully transform the reader's relationship with their heavenly Father—this transformation is ushered in by the pivotal realization that the church of our day is laboring under severely misplaced boundaries which it has put on both God's sovereignty and His loving involvement in our lives. This book is a compelling cry for the church to return to the high view of God that was held by the Reformers and the champions of the faith from past years; in fact, Bernecker reinforces the solid scriptural foundation from which he writes with many relevant quotes from great Christian leaders and thinkers such as Spurgeon, Augustine, Edwards, Luther, Tyndale, Lewis, and many others. The book invites all to experience the incredible benefits which inevitably flow from correctly understanding the true God who is revealed in the Bible, showing readers how they can truly rest in God's loving purpose for their lives, and it makes plain the certainty with which they can trust God to fulfill His purpose.

As a lifetime student of the Bible who has been deeply involved in his church and ministries for over thirty years, this recently retired CEO of a multi-million dollar company brings the unique perspective of a layman to bear on weighty biblical issues in a way that make it easy for all to understand. His non-theologian's approach to difficult theological issues is refreshing and inspiring. Bernecker's lifetime experiences and intensive study of the Bible have opened his eyes to the inseparable connection between God's sovereignty and God's love, and he explains brilliantly how much of the church of our day misses this vital link. He shares this biblical viewpoint in a new release that is both unique and thought-provoking, a book that carefully challenges old thought patterns and preexisting notions of who God is and how He works in our world today. New and mature believers alike will come to know God as never before, and they will develop a wonderfully satisfying relationship with their loving Father that was previously unimaginable. Developed for either individual reflection or a weekly study group, this new book is an essential tool for building a biblically correct perspective of God.

Christian Author News - Multi-published author Wayne Wilson

Multi-published author Wayne Wilson takes a look at Job fifteen years after his sufferings in his new book Suffer the Slings and Arrows: A Dialogue of Job. Relying heavily upon scripture, the author creates a fiction tale of the character Job and his friends. Building from the foundation that "time heals all wounds" the author poignantly gives a historical background, spanning the landscape of history, to tell the meaning of Jobs sufferings, answering the questions as to why there is suffering in this fallen world, giving hope and pointing others to the sacrificial offering of the Cross.

Wayne Wilson's writings attempt to depict life in a fallen world where God is more interested in our character than our comfort. It is an attempt to make the Good News of the Incarnation relevant to the Westerner who wallows in comfort as well as the suffering billions in the so-called third world. The relevance comes in the fact that this is a fallen world with more inherent lows than highs, yet the Incarnation, i.e the fact that God visited earth in bodily form to live and die on our behalf, gives meaning to these lows and the highs of life. And it is this meaning that infuses life with joy and purpose. Furthermore, it is the author's belief that a sacramental approach to life and worship is the best way to implement this understanding.

"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you." Confessions by St. Augustine.

The truth of the Gospel - Justification by Faith Alone in Christ Alone

Justification by Faith Alone in Christ Alone by Christian author Grace Dola Balogun is an uplifting book that encourages the Body of Christ to persevere through various hardships and trials because the hope of Christ does not disappoint, nor does His salvation by grace alone fail.  The one requirement to salvation is faith in Jesus Christ as the author and finisher of our faith.  Grace Dola Balogun encourages readers to come up higher and gain a new perspective that is biblically based on subjects such as faith, grace, salvation, redemption, sanctification and justification.  All are revealed from a biblical foundation, displaying the truth of the Gospel.  Christ won for us on the Cross justification by faith alone.  The author thereby reveals the wonderful work of God that comes from justification that produces the fruits of the spirit in the believer.

By discussing such topics as: interpretation of faith, God's work of justification, grace, redemption, Abraham's faith, Christ's obedience to the Father, the peace of God, holy faith that produces works, no faith equaling no good works, the results of good works, the fruit of faith, post reformer teachings on faith, examples of faith, living by faith – not by sight, faith, Christ, sanctification and glorification, Christ as our hope of glory and the gift of grace - the author has given a comprehensive study on the matter of justification by faith in Christ alone.

Once one comes to Christ, they are a new creation in Christ.   This new creation experiences a remission of sins and a righteousness that is imputed from our heavenly Father through Jesus Christ to the new believer.  We must understand the justification that has taken place that enables the Christian to enter into eternity.  All have come short of the glory of God and all go their own way; we can praise the Lord for this justification that comes by faith alone in Christ alone.  Hallelujah! Amen.
