The Trumpet and the Swan

Ages 11 - adult Joshua is a high school student with a desire to please in order to avoid conflict and just make life go smoothly. President Swan is back in office and has a desire to please in order to increase his following, what any powerful man wants. They are destined to collide, one sounding the trumpet, the other turning it to his own advantage. How does a boy go from algebra class to the White House? How can he please his parents and God when they seem to want different things? How can he know what God's asking him to do? How does someone who wishes Jesus would just come and tell him what to do find his way through the trial of tribulation? By learning one simple thing: You don't need to know everything. You just need to know Jesus. As believers, we are often looking for signs of the times. The Trumpet and the Swan is a timely reminder that in all the watching, we need to keep our eyes on the only one who matters - Jesus. While this story feels as though it could be set in our not-so-distant future, the truth remains the same, Jesus is the answer for whatever we face today, tomorrow, and in whatever our future holds. - Jenn The Trumpet and the Swan is yet another powerful end times story from author Lee Giles. Giles has a gift for writing books that not only brings the word of God alive through vivid story telling but leads the reader into deeper understanding of who God is and what we as Christians should be. This real time, end-of-days story encourages the heart of believers to "Fear God and nothing else, Love God and everybody else". Giles' masterful storytelling takes her readers on a journey that leads to the ultimate understanding that "all we need to know is Jesus". In an uncertain world that is spiraling out of control, this book brings you back to the basics of trusting the Father for everything. It will encourage the end time saints to stand firm and simply know Jesus. -K. Hart, house church leader This short novel pulled me in and would not let me go until I reached the powerful conclusion. You cannot remain the same after reading it. The struggles, triumphs, and faith of the young hero will force you to re-examine everything you have assumed to be true and normal, and to examine yourself and what you truly believe about God and His Word. You will emerge on the other side with a new focus on what is real, what is important, what is true; and you will be prepared to be a disciple of Jesus no matter what may lie ahead. - D. John, Missionary
