Produktbeschreibung
Loss of Heaven, Pains of Hell tells the story of One determined newspaper writer who takes on the challenges of a local Roman Catholic diocese and the parishioners and clergy in it struggling with today's difficult and even criminal realities. It is a human tale that Catholics, non-Catholics, and non- believers alike will find all-too familiar and one which many headlines across the nation and around the world reference all too often. This is a book that deals less with drama and more with the troubling reality of human weaknesses, temptations, and day-to- day tragedies with which we are all too familiar, The author's greatest hope is that it will not only remind us of daily challenges we may all face-directly or through our loved ones' experiences-but will also offer us hope that, with determination and courage we can have a role in righting the wrongs that have been covered up for too many centuries In the end, the characters encourage all of us to find the courage to do the right thing, however many barriers, threats, and, difficulties stand between us and justice. All of these story lines will be familiar to readers who, hopefully, will find in this novel the understanding, compassion, and camaraderie we all need to overcome spiritual and truly human crises.
