Full Circle: In God We Trust
FULL CIRCLE: In God We Trust
The battle for the Bible and the Christian faith is ongoing and will worsen with time. FULL CIRCLE: In God We Trust follows the demise of the nation’s largest megachurch, Soter Bible Church. The story is told through the lives of its pastor, Gabriel Johnson and Gabriel’s best friend and attorney, Jake Taylor. The antagonist, Dr. Kurt Zimmer, is the head of Universalist World Wide (UWW). The UWW is considered by many to be the “new church” and is growing rapidly in America. While Zimmer builds the UWW in America, he has set his sights on destroying Soter and all that it stands for. Zimmer works his schemes through a secret society that controls the UWW and that has for centuries fought to put an end to Christianity.
The book is set in the year 2033, and the UWW’s latest effort to destroy the church comes by way of an amendment to The Federal Education Act of 2018 (FEA). That act federalized America’s education system in an effort to stop the downward spiral that was being experienced. As of July 1, 2018, education in America was the exclusive province of the federal government.
Not surprisingly, the end result of the FEA was the end of homeschooling, the closing of Christian schools and universities, and in a final case, the end of “Sunday School” as it was known at the time. Fifteen years later, FULL CIRCLE: In God We Trust is the next chapter in that battle. Zimmer and the UWW orchestrate and manipulate two powerful senators into amending the FEA in what is hoped to be the final death nail for Christianity. The amendment prohibits the use of the Bible in any “educational setting” and includes the traditional Sunday morning worship service. Violating the new law is a criminal act; and Gabriel Johnson faces his greatest challenge.
The primary setting of the book is in Lynchburg, Virginia. Soter Bible Church is located there and was built from the ground up by Gabriel Johnson. Gabriel is an unlikely pastor. His youthful years landed him in a California prison where he found his way back to God and committed his life to Him. Gabriel struggles throughout the book with the conflict between honoring God’s call on his life and the possibility of going back to prison if he violates the recently amended FEA. He chooses to honor God and is prosecuted for using his Bible while preaching at Soter.
How bad will it be in the year 2033? FULL CIRCLE: In God We Trust is fiction, but could easily become the new reality.
