Über dieses E-Book

Two prominent men, friends and leaders in their church—one an elder and the other a deacon—embark on a road trip. Their destination is a gathering of great Biblical leaders and teachers along with the best-known Christian musicians and singers where the elder is to deliver opening remarks. It’s a gathering to show the world where Christians stand on important issues.

Knowing the trip will take almost two full days, they get an early morning start. As the day progresses, the deacon and elder stop for lunch and gas. This is where the journey starts to take a turn. The deacon notices a sick man in need, and the deacon insists he’s going to stay in town and help while the elder continues to the revival.

The deacon spends his life in service to others, first as a true friend to the elder, then as a helping hand to the downtrodden and those tortured by grief, and finally as a mentor to a lost teenager. Without realizing it, his simple obedience to the still, quiet voice of God causes life-changing results in the people he meets. Those he helps see him as a beacon of light, or as the welcoming light the church is supposed to be to the lost and needy throughout the world.
