The Last Christian by David Gregory - REVIEW and GIVE AWAY!

ABOUT THE BOOK: (from the publisher)

In the future, it’s possible to live forever—but at what cost?

A.D. 2088.

Missionary daughter Abigail Caldwell emerges from the jungle for the first time in her thirty-four years, the sole survivor of a mysterious disease that killed her village. Abby goes to America, only to discover a nation where Christianity has completely died out. A curious message from her grandfather assigns her a surprising mission: re-introduce the Christian faith in America, no matter how insurmountable the odds.

But a larger threat looms. The world's leading artificial intelligence industrialist has perfected a technique for downloading the human brain into a silicon form. Brain transplants have begun, and with them comes the potential of eliminating physical death altogether—but at what expense?

As Abby navigates a society grown more addicted to stimulating the body than nurturing the soul, she and Creighton Daniels, a historian troubled by his father's unexpected death, become unwitting targets of powerful men who will stop at nothing to further their nefarious goals. Hanging in the balance—the spiritual future of all humanity.

In this fast-paced thriller, startling near-future science collides with thought-provoking religious themes to create a spell-binding "what-if?" novel.

MY THOUGHTS:

David Gregory has a most fascinating way of exploring complex ideas! The Last Christian takes a look at the concept of where the human spirit really resides, and the power of God to maintain His presence among His created beings no matter how hard they try to stamp Him out. Can you imagine a future point when scientists discover a way to transplant a BRAIN!? Can you imagine a life that includes virtual reality as part of every day existence? Can you imagine a government program, financing scientific efforts for very specific genocide? Can you imagine?!

David Gregory can and has and does and makes it possible for you to do this too! The Last Christian is a futuristic story with some elements that resemble science fiction. This is a very well-written book, and truly presents some fascinating scenarios for everyone to consider. However, what is even more powerfully presented is God’s awesome power to save to the uttermost and man’s complete inability (no matter how brilliant his efforts) to out maneuver the Creator of the Universe! The action builds to a haunting intensity by the end of the story, and all along the way Gregory’s characters set up fascinating thoughts for consideration. The beautiful part of this story – for me anyway – is that God NEVER changes! Twist life any way you want it, but you can’t get away from truth no matter how hard you try.

David Gregory understands that completely! If you want to read something really outside the box but inside God’s truth, consider picking up a copy of The Last Christian.

The war to compete with and remove power from God’s hands is as old as time itself. You will enjoy the entertaining consideration of this concept!
