He examines his relationships to those he loves?his girlfriend, his best friend, his father, his dead mother, his daughter ? and grapples with the pain he has been carrying since the death of his mother when he was still a boy.<\/p>\n<p> While in Iraq, armed with his sniper\u2019s \u2018s rifle and his deeply held faith, Specialist Pease traveled across ideological borders and earned an appreciation for his enemy\u2019s culture and for what connect us all as human beings. He also learned how to kill and taught others to do the same. \u201cWar doesn\u2019t test your faith in Jesus,\u201d Warren comes to realize. \u201cIt tests your faith in yourself.\u201d The Last Day answers some questions and asks many more. It\u2019s a powerful meditation on religion and war, love and loss.<\/p>\n<p> This work of compassion and healing grace will resonate with skeptics and believers, be shared and discussed between friends and among families. It is a book for our time, and forever.<\/p>\n<p>\n If you would like to read an excerpt from Chapter one of , go <a href=\"http:\/\/thestorybeginnings.blogspot.com\/2010\/01\/last-day-chapter-1.html\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing The Last Day Steerforth; 1 edition (September 1, 2009) by James Landis ABOUT THE AUTHOR: James Landis lives in New Hampshire.
