Come revisit 1905 East Texas, where a young Methodist preacher arrives to lead a church—and finds himself drawn into a war for the soul of a town.

About our Speaker:

Thomas Goodman is a Spur Award–winning author of historical novels rooted in the grit and grace of turn-of-the-century Texas. He is a pastor with handgun training, though not yet a pistol-packing preacher. He married his high school sweetheart, Diane, and they have two adult sons. When time allows, he enjoys fly fishing, scuba diving, and puttering around his woodworking shop. Learn more about his books and sign up for his monthly newsletter at ThomasGoodmanWrites.com.
