Ripples - Jimmy Deas - Bog

"Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into the water, the actions of individuals can have far-reaching effects." -Dalai Lama When Rev. Mark Thomas preached a sermon about the ripple effects of one's actions, he could not have imagined the events that would unfold in the town of Dorado Beach. A respected businessman learns of a daughter he never knew existed. The Viet Nam veteran who is tormented by something that happened in the jungles of Southeast Asia twenty years earlier. A divorced man who lives with the reality that he ruined his marriage by having an affair with a neighbor. A dying woman who alienated her only sister by a selfish act. A compulsive gambler who gets entangled with a criminal element as a result of his gambling debts and could possibly go to prison. Ripples combines suspense, intrigue, love, faith, and forgiveness in a story that will keep you reading. This is the fourth book in the Mark Thomas series: Ran Like Joseph, Just Have Faith, and Prodigal Sons. Ripples is the second book set in the fictional North Florida beach town of Dorado Beach. Jimmy Deas is a Christian author who draws from his forty plus years in the ministry to create the characters and story plots of his Mark Thomas series.
