Within the pages the new book, In Search of Sanctuary, ($18.99, paperback, 9781626979123; $9.99, e-book, 9781626979130) Jamie E. Kirby draws together a timeless historical fiction with a score of well-developed characters. The complex storyline ushers readers along the journey between two continents—all set in the 1890s. At the very core of this literary piece, the author desires to share that God’s presence is guaranteed, even in the face of extreme disappointment, violence, or setbacks.
“Since 9/11, our lives have radically changed,” states the author. “Our sense of security about both present and future has been forever altered. What has not changed is God's faithfulness. In these increasingly frightening, unsettling, and dangerous times, it is critical to find the one true place of sanctuary—God Himself.”
