The Gospel Messenger, #2 Galen Shotts

The second in The Gospel Messenger series, the Book of Luke has us once again traveling life's journeys with Luke and Keith. In book #1, the Book of Mathew, Luke and Keith traveled halfway across the country to accomplish the tam by an angel messenger. Along the way they met many helpers and became the best of friends. Again they find they can serve the Lord in mighty ways but not by leaving home. And help comes from those they are most familiar with. They help a fellow student in need while Luke learns he can help himself by following the path God wants him to follow: helping others allows us to find ways to help ourselves. Conversely, Mike learns that helping himself sets him on a path to help others. He rises out of the pit of life's despair to accept the help of others setting him on a road to accepting Jesus and finding what he wants to do in life. Those who should help him are the ones who abandon him and he must learn to make his own way - with the Lord's help in the form of Luke and Keith. This is a book of love, service, friendship, and answering God's call.
