TOM was written as "roman-a-clef," meaning that names, places, and some events have been changed, but not the essence of a real story. It is a personal journey of dashed hopes, brokenness, and disappointment. And, it is the story of unlikely human connection, of faith struggle, the wonder of life, and ultimately, of hope. It is adult fiction. TOM's story is not intended for children and youth. This novella includes vulgar language, violent imagery, and mature, difficult subjects.

What kind of book is "HARBOR YARNS?" Fiction, to be sure. But like all fiction, there could be true events behind the tales. The reader might imagine taking a big cooking pot and tossing in some ingredients. Begin with a copious amount of whiskey broth. Certainly stir in, many hearty dashes of Garrison Keillor and Will Rogers. Then add several cupfuls of Mark Twain and Tristan Jones. Don't forget dollops and spoonfuls more of Edgar Allan Poe and Woody Guthrie. Stir it all around. Maybe, that's the book. Too little fun in this life, I think. If you're looking for a book that is heavy, estimating the number of months or years before we destroy ourselves and our planet, something to reinforce your depressed mood, this probably isn't the ticket. On the other hand...

The subject of this book is the apostolic mission of Jesus the Messiah, who was sent into this world by His Heavenly Father and given a commission to liberate humanity from the kingdom of the devil and the evil powers which have been allied with him ever since the fall of Adam. In fulfilling this mission, Jesus pursued an active ministry for over three years. His mission and ministry were focused on the proclamation of a completely new message: the Gospel, or Good News, of the Kingdom of God. Through this message, Jesus announced that God''s Kingdom was breaking into the darkness of this world to liberate the captives of the devil. Moreover, it was a "multimedia presentation" which was announced in words and demonstrated in miraculous works of healing and deliverance through the power of the Holy Spirit. His apostolic mission is especially important to the modern Church because it is also our mission and ministry. Although our Lord was the first to announce the Gospel of the Kingdom, He trained and equipped His apostles to carry on the ministry which He had begun. Moreover, before He ascended to the Father He commissioned His Church to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom throughout the entire world.
