Charleston Dawn: Christian Atlanta Author/Speakers First Book

Charleston Dawn

Christian Atlanta Author/Speakers First Book

Charleston Dawn is a real page turner and a Christian Fiction Romance Murder Mystery that combines the ambiance of Charleston, South Carolina, chase scenes and romance the way God intended.

What Our Readers Have to Say

“Wow I can’t believe it! I was just getting on-line to e-mail you. I’ve finally been able to read Charleston Dawn. I was excited to read it when I first got it, but was involved in so many Bible Study preps, that I couldn’t fit in reading a fiction book. Then, we got started on the mission trip and couldn’t find time.

But I picked it up 2 days ago and I’m nearing the end. I love it! I loved remembering our mission trip verse with ‘Joseph’ reading Psalm 27. I love how Mary and Joseph’s life helps all of us, especially new Christians, know how to recognize and experience God’s presence.

I’m sure many times new Christians feel new and different, but don’t understand that it’s the Spirit now in them. John’s book will help them see clearer what the new experience really is. Also, the way the book gives examples of how and what to pray and to pray continually. Great examples for prayers, again, beneficial to new Christians. It will be a book that I will give as gifts. Right now, Mary in is the hands of the wrong person…looking forward to reading what God is ‘up to…’

Congratulations John on a wonderful use of the talents God has blessed you with, He is glorified”.

Charleston Dawn is well worth the reading as well as pondering its theme of growth in the knowledge of the Lord, Jesus Christ in the heart of two seekers falling in love. Read it, you will be blessed.”
