ABOUT THE BOOK
Pastor Jerome Tyler “JT” Thomas is charismatic behind the pulpit, charming to all he comes in contact with, and lethal to those who linger too long. Since the age of twenty-two, when he prayed for God to keep him out of prison, JT knew he would preach the gospel. Bishop Turner makes it possible; but there are strings attached, and now JT isn’t sure he can stay tied down.
Cutting loose causes more problems than JT anticipated. When an old friend from his days on the streets resurfaces and his extracurricular activity comes knocking on his front door, JT’s life and the lives of those close to him spiral out of control. Now he will need divine intervention to make things right. But how much help can a man hope to receive when he feels he’s been forsaken by God?

Angela, I really appreciate that you would post info about my new book on your blog. You have always been very kind to me. And I am thankful to have met you — for without you I wouldn’t have been introduced to my agent.
Thanks, and much success to you with your new book, Sins of the Father.
I have to say I didn’t read the excerpt because I didn’t want to get wrapped up in the story yet and not able to finish it. I am looking forward to the read, though.
Angela,
Thanks for supporting a fellow author! This is a beautiful thing!
Blessings,
Ty
