IT’S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD\u2014WHICH COULD BE A PROBLEM…<\/p>\n

Mark Hogan has it all. The job. The family. A position on the board at church. All he’s missing is a boat. Not just any boat\u2014a 2008 Bayliner 192.<\/p>\n

When Reverend Daniel Glory announces that the Rapture is taking place on October 17 at 5:51am, Hogan realizes his boat\u2014buying days are numbered. So he does what any man in his situation would do\u2014he borrows a load of money from the mob.<\/p>\n

Not that there’s any risk involved: After all, when the Rapture comes, Hogan will be long gone. The mob will never find him.<\/p>\n

But when Jesus fails to come back on schedule, Mark Hogan finds the mob is in no mood to discuss the finer points of end\u2014times theology…<\/p>\n

Chris Well’s laugh\u2014out\u2014loud Christian thrillers appeal to the millions of readers who gobble up the rollicking crime fiction of Janet Evanovich and Elmore Leonard.<\/p>\n

======
This book sounds interesting. I’ve ordered it from Amazon, and will post a review about it when I get around to reading it. Hogan’s actions, borrowing money from the mob since the rapture is coming, remind me of the actions of a religious organization that I’ve heard a lot about. I’d heard of one religious organization that predicted Christ’s second coming for 1975. I heard that people sold their homes, using the proceeds for ‘the cause’ in light of Christ’s return, only to be disappointed. The Bible says to beware of false prophets, and I think trying to predict the second coming of Christ and the rapture is a definite no-no!<\/p>\n
