Publisher Description

Needful Things meets a Pentecostal revival in this Christian suspense novel about a mysterious stranger coming to a sleepy Northwestern town claiming to be a prophet.

Travis Jordan, a widower and burned-out pastor, hoped to disappear into the quiet, unassuming town of Antioch, Washington. Then a man claiming to be the new Christ arrives, performing miracle after miracle, and the national spotlight soon follows.

As the town escalates in its religious fervor, Travis must battle with his own questions about his faith and the increasing extremism and zealotry overtaking the town. The startling secret behind this visitation will ultimately push him into a supernatural confrontation that has eternal consequences.

"If you're a solid Christian and a long time church-goer you should get the humor in this novel. Very funny in some places and sobering in others, Peretti exposes the heart-breaking and damaging things that can happen to a church when parishioners prefer being entertained rather than being taught by the church. This book tackles what is a very real problem in the church today with humor and poignancy. One of my favorite Peretti novels."

    " A very good book about what happens to an ex-pastor and the small town he lives in when a man arrives who makes it seem that he is the second coming of Jesus Christ. A very interesting study in what can happen when you have faith because you tangibly benefit vs having faith due to the teachings of the bible. "

    " Like most of his early books, this one kept me glued and on the edge of my seat. I don't think I liked it near as much as The Oath, but it's an extremely good read I wouldn't mind recommending to my friends. I like how he sneaks some worthy critiques of the American church into the story. "

    " I've never read a single "Christian fiction" book, so I thought a Frank Peretti book is a good place to start, but I seem to not have the taste for this type of literature. It's too preachy, but I'm still reading it just for the sake of finishing. (My apologies to Frank Peretti's fans.) "

    " I read this last year, looking forward to another book like This Present Darkness. But this book, to me, was horrible. The plot was okay, but there were multiple small details that I hated. I.e. speaking in tongues and a woman preacher. I definitely do not recommend this book. "
