But when Leslie's own thirteen year-old daughter, Molly, attempts to hire her to find a vanished friend, the echoes start to take their form from Leslie's own troubled childhood. As the search for Molly's friend Lydia gets underway, it becomes apparent that there's much more to the story: a party of eighth graders at Lydia's home got out of hand and has resulted in charges of sexual assault against five thirteen-year-old boys. The once-rural town and now burgeoning suburb of Swifton Woods. Swifton has labored for decades under the stigma of an unsolved series of abductions and rapes of eleven young girls, who came to be known as the Nightingales. An incidental connection between Lydia's party and Swifton's past only fans the public response to an ugly rage. The boys' conviction seems all but inevitable.Molly, however, knows more than she's telling. In trying to honor a solemn promise while negotiating her inherent sense of right and wrong, she finds herself despised by those she most wants to help. At the same time, Leslie's increasing worry for the depth of Molly's involvement begins to weave into her own secret knowledge of the Nightingales' history. In the end, she is left uncertain of every instinct but the one that demands she protect her child. Even if that means she has to betray her own childhood by telling everything.

John: Eternal Love (The Passion Translation)


Brian Simmons - 2013
    Miracles are everywhere! First, there was the glorious miracle of the incarnation: God became a man-Jesus Christ, full of grace and truth! Later water became wine; blind eyes were blessed with sight; even the dead rose to walk again when Jesus lived among men. The writings of John are unique. John was a prophet, a seer, a lover of God, an evangelist, an author, an apostle, and a son of thunder. John writes to unveil the glorious mystery of Christ who is given for us! While the other three gospels give us the history of Jesus Christ, the gospel of John introduces us to Jesus as the Lamb of God, the Good Shepherd, the Kind Forgiver, the Tender Healer, the Compassionate Intercessor, and the Great I Am. Who can resist this man when He tugs on your heart, calling you to come to Him? To read John's gospel is to encounter Jesus. Make encountering God your goal as you read John, Eternal Love!
