The Lost Testament Brian L. Thompson

After a public scandal leaves his personal life and ministry in ruins, Darrion James makes plans to start over elsewhere. On a train ride south, he meets a quirky Jewish writer who hands him a notebook with a controversial origin. . . Finding himself drawn to the writings, which he calls The Lost Testament, he spearheads a fiery, spiritual revival in the segregated mountain town of his youth - much to the chagrin of Ku Klux Klansman Geary Johnson. Meanwhile, Jack Miles Everham and his wife Betty Lou are desperate to escape their loveless marriage and prostitute Charlie Evans and her Creole friend, Joséphine Courtier, do whatever they can to survive. All cross paths with Darrion, resulting in life-altering, violent, and even deadly consequences. Taking place over fourteen months, The Lost Testament combines engaging characters and fast-paced events inspired by the 1906 Asuza Street Revival to teach powerful lessons of faith, humanity, healing, and restoration.
