Books by Friends

In my writing ministry and working with WinePress Publishing, I have the chance to meet some great Christian writers. On this blog spot I will review books and products that you will enjoy reading, many of them by friends.

To order any of these products and discover other great resources, check out The Salt Shaker Bookstore. My son Joshua runs this charming Christian bookstore in Enumclaw, WA. He grew up tagging along with me to writers' conferences and has a wonderful understanding of the Christian market. He has given me my own Mom's Friends Page on his website to post announcements about my friends' books.

ROOMS by James Rubart

If you like mystery, a bit of suspense, a brush with the supernatural, and a touch of romance, then you will love Rooms by Jim Rubart. This very unique storyline will keep you intrigued and coming back for more. Software tycoon Micah Taylor inherits a beautiful, but strange, nine-thousand-square-foot house on the Oregon coast. Micah’s great uncle, whom he had never met, built this house for his nephew and wrote cryptic letters twenty-five-years prior in anticipation that his nephew would need to make some drastic life changes. Micah arrives at Cannon Beach and soon finds the home intriguing and mysterious. Bizarre rooms emerge throughout the house, causing Micah to search his soul and examine his life. He meets Sarah Sabin at a nearby ice-cream shop and has two reasons to visit the beach every weekend. Micah also meets Rick, the town mechanic, who becomes a friend and confidant. Rick obviously knows the source of the mysteries and encourages Micah to surrender to the spiritual aspects of the house. A spiritual battle rages inside Micah, whose faith slipped away with the tide years ago, and he wants to forget the pain of his past. Day by day, room by room, Micah discovers that the house is a physical manifestation of his soul, and he must make choices that will change his past, present, and future. In each room Micah faces spiritual battles from within and from without and finds healing for his deepest wounds. While not at all frightening, Rooms may cause you to examine the secrets hidden in your own heart and life. James L. Rubart is a professional marketer whose Jr2 Marketing company clientele has included ABC, AT&T/Cingular, and Clear Channel Radio. He is also a professional speaker, writes recurring columns for Christian Fiction Online magazine and Christian Women Online. I've had the pleasure of serving with on the Northwest Christian Writers' Association board and on his prayer loop for several years. Jim and his wife and their two teenage sons live just outside Seattle, Washington.
