"Truth" is not your ordinary novel. It speaks of a love which seems impossible to obtain and yet challenges us to pursue. It encourages us to be strong yet asks us to surrender. It acclaims life yet demands we die. Jess Rivers was confronted with truth, Jacob Hamilton set out to find truth; both were brought places neither wanted to go. Truth is welcome...until it asks something of us.

By Patricia J Romero I was very pleased to find this wonderfully inspiring storywhich truly does speak the "truth" and shows the affect itcan have on people's life when they adhere to it. The themeof this book is very relevant for today and will surely hit homefor those who read it and take it to heart! So I highly recommendthat you take the time to read this moving story with a timely message.

Prophetic Fiction By Greg Brown When Jesus was interrogated by Pontius Pilate, he responded, “I came to bear witness to the truth,” and Pontius replied, “What is truth?” (John 18:37-38). That question is as relevant now as it was then. What is truth? Many would say, “Truth is what you believe. It is relative. What you believe is true to you and what I believe is true to me.” Essentially, the common logic of today would have us do away with absolute truths and morality all together.In Roger Deloach’s book Truth, he argues against this logic but not in a didactic way. He argues against it through a story. Like Christ, he presents a parable that challenges readers to consider and reexamine truth. It says to the hearts of readers, “Do you believe the Truth?”I would call this style of writing “Prophetic Fiction.” It prophetically speaks to believers and non-believers alike. The story is dramatic. It begins with an old man who fell away from the faith as a young boy. Later in life, he has a near-death experience where God miraculously protects him and speaks to him. From that point on, this man comes to know who God is in Christ and through Scripture. The story details the exciting ups and downs of his maturing faith, as he learns to give God everything. Then the story transitions to events leading up to the fall of a megachurch pastor and then adeptly brings the two stories together.Here are some things I really enjoyed: I appreciated how different parts of the story or past events in people’s lives intersected. One could call it fate, but I believe it was the author’s intent to show God’s sovereignty over the details of life and how he works all things for the good of believers and to draw unbelievers to himself. I found these divine appointments and details refreshing, especially as they reminded me of how God’s sovereign hand guides the events of my life.I also marveled at how the author continually intertwined Scripture and doctrine throughout the narrative. It reminded me of the gospel of Matthew. Not only does Matthew share the narrative of Christ but also entire sermons and instructional dialogues with the intention of teaching and challenging the hearers. Throughout, he trumpets, “Christ is the Messiah!” As Matthew focuses more on Christ’s teachings than other gospels, Roger Deloach shares more biblical truth than most Christian fiction authors. At times his story whispers and other times it shouts, “This is Truth!”And finally, as mentioned, the prophetic nature of the book was very unique. It speaks about contemporary issues calling the listener to respond. Here is an example of a sermon by a local pastor that speaks prophetically on key issues like abortion, homosexuality, evolution, and pluralism:“‘Young girls like Amanda are being bombarded with lies daily. They are told that this life inside of them is not a baby, but a piece of tissue that is easily removed. They are rarely told the truth about what happens in an abortion; how the baby is cut or sucked to pieces, or how it is burned to death with saline solution. They are told it is a simple medical procedure. They are never told that the baby writhes in pain as its limbs are being ripped or cut away.‘Within so many churches the immorality of premarital sex is not challenged, we allow those who are living together to teach Sunday school. The immorality of homosexuality is not a topic of discussion any more; the discussion now centers on what those who practice this sin will be allowed to do in the body of Christ. Evolution, a theory of how everything came into being without the Creator and the need for the Redeemer, is accepted in whole or in part by most people claiming to be Christians. The idea that one god encompasses all religions is prevalent, proclaiming many ways to eternal life. These are just a few examples of compromising the word of God.”Roger Deloach’s fictional story Truth prophetically shares God’s message with a generation that desperately needs to hear it. Most Christian fiction doesn’t pack a punch like this! It is not only meant to entertain but change lives, and I believe it will achieve both.

For Christians Dealing with Tough Issues By Natalie Vellacott I was asked by the author for an honest review and received a free PDF for this purpose."Truth" held my interest which isn't always guaranteed. It was worth reading and tackles some difficult subjects from a Christian perspective. The book is divided into three parts that are cleverly inter-linked with the main characters partially overlapping. The author highlights many important points concerning how we do "church" and how this may not in fact be how God requires us to worship Him. The author clearly has a good knowledge of Scripture and brings it in at every stage of the book.The first part of the story involves an older man who made a profession of faith in his teens but turned his back on God shortly after. A near death experience causes him to re-examine everything. The second part details a mega church pastor and his dramatic fall from being rich, successful and serving the idols of his heart. The third part brings the two stories together and challenges the reader to examine his own heart and life. I thought the second part was most interesting as the author goes into a lot of detail concerning how the mega church pastor ended up in his position and why it was necessary for him to fall. I believe this is a timely message for many church leaders.This is clearly meant to be an evangelistic book but I believe it may appeal more to nominal Christians or those who are back-slidden, also church leaders who are in the ministry for the wrong reasons. There are large portions of scripture documented in the book and detailed conversations about faith take place between the main characters. I'm not sure whether non-believers would persevere and work through the heavy religious content, maybe some who are seeking the truth already would be interested. This book may challenge those who once made a profession causing them to look back over their meaningless lives ...I disagreed with the author on a few minor theological points but nothing worth including in this review. I also felt that the book became predictable in places and at times needed a dose of reality to the outcomes. However, as it is fiction that is the licence of the author."Truth" tackles some controversial issues including marital infidelity, abortion and suicide so this book may not be suitable for younger readers. Having said that it is clean and free of bad language, graphic violence and sexual content. There is some violence but nothing too dramatic.I would recommend for adults especially those dealing with the difficult issues mentioned above as the author makes some good points from a Biblical perspective.
