Common Ground
Common GroundA Novel of Faith, Friendship, and the Conversations that Change Us
At a corner booth in a small-town coffee shop, faith collides with friendship. A Catholic, a Baptist, a Jew, a Muslim, an Anglican, and a skeptic gather week after week to wrestle with the questions that shape their lives.
They don’t always agree. Sometimes they clash, sometimes they laugh, sometimes they walk away frustrated. But in the steam of lattes, the pages of open Bibles, and the raw honesty of real teenagers, something surprising begins to walls come down, trust grows, and grace takes root.
Inside Common Ground, you’ll step into their world—full of heated debates, late-night doubts, unexpected laughter, and fragile but fierce faith. You’ll hear them argue about the Bible, Mary, suffering, salvation, authority, and the mysteries of God Himself. And you’ll watch as friendship proves stronger than division, and truth becomes more than just a debate—it becomes a Person who changes everything.
Perfect
