We Need a Hero!
We live in a time when darkness is trying to overcome the world by destroying that which is good. Evil is being celebrated and even protected by law. Families are
being ripped apart by drug & alcohol abuse, physical and emotional abuse, and
the divorce rate is higher than it's ever been. Human trafficking is skyrocketing out
of control and people are resorting to violence against one another. Anger and
rage are being applauded and justified. Laziness and apathy have hoodwinked
countless more who've turned a blind-eye to the evil that surrounds them.
Well, we can sit by and complain about it (and nothing will change), or, we can do our part to be a light in the darkness. "Torch" is a book that will inspire you to shine the light that
God has placed inside of you in this dark world. It will challenge you to be bold and to trust
God's leading in the process. Are you going to just sit by and let the EVIL win?
“Let not anyone pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if
he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass
their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing."
-John Stuart Mill, 1876
‘Torch’ is a fantasy-action novel told in the first person by a 14-year boy named T, who is trying to rescue his mother and three-year-old sister who was kidnapped in front of his eyes by a swarm of evil. On his journey to rescue them, he discovers a torch that, in his hands, transforms him from an awkward, timid teen, into a
powerful warrior. He also discovers that his mission is bigger than just saving his
mother and sister, the fate of the world is at stake. When you are sick, you need a
doctor. When you are hungry, you need food. And when it’s dark, you need light.
