"Your life is crafted and manipulated by others." That statement above sounds scary and is met with great resistance by many, but it is unfortunately true in most cases. It is often family, education, society, as well as other hierarchical organizations that tell us how to think, act, learn, and live. It is through these belief systems from these external structures in which we allow our lives to be lived. This leads to disempowerment, confusion, and ultimately unhappiness.

“And who does this belong to?” the chubby cop asked us as he pulled about three grams of heroin out of the purse tucked into the couch. “I-I-I don’t know,” Keya stuttered, trying not to cry. “Well, boy, what about you?” the cop asked as he turned to me. I didn’t say a word. I just sat there in silence. “Well, Keya, since it’s in this purse with your identification, it’s yours,” he snapped as he aggressively put handcuffs on her also. She sat there with her head hanging low. Just like that, I was on my way to the county jail along with my girl for capital murder.

Ask Christians what they expect to happen to them after they die, and most will say they will go to heaven. And they’ll probably say that they will meet Jesus and hope to hear Him say, “Well done good and faithful servant.” But many believers know they are not living up to God’s calling on their lives. In fact, many might even admit their lives don’t honor God at all. Author Ken Harrison masterfully uses his stories as a Los Angeles police officer in one of the deadliest areas of the country to explain and illustrate deep truths from God’s Word.

Persephone keeps the human clans from turning on one another through her iron will and a compassionate heart. The arrogant Fhrey are barely held in check by their leader, Nyphron, who seeks to advance his own nefarious agenda through a loveless marriage that will result in the betrayal of the person Persephone loves most: Raithe, the God Killer.
