That'll give me plenty of time to talk to Lily before tonight." I changed subjects. "So, what do you want to do until then?" She hesitated as she thought about it. "Well, I've told you the pressing issues. Do you want to hear about anything else right now...or can it wait?" I blinked at her in surprise. "Yeah, it can wait. Of course." "Then..." She bit her lower lip. "Can I take you to my place?" I smirked at her. "What? And play with me before you have to take me back to work?" She didn't smile. "Oh." I locked eyes with her, unexpectedly feeling nervous. She was completely serious. "Umm, okay." She stood up immediately, reaching her hand out towards me. She still wasn't smiling. Her gaze was intense. Damn, what was I getting myself into? The Daily Struggles of an Immortal is a full-length novel: ~ 85,000 words. Genre: Fantasy - Superhero Adventure / Superhero Romance / Humor
Is There Life After Death? For many, death is terrifying. We try to live as long as possible while hoping that science will soon find a way to allow us to live, if not forever, then at least a very long time. Whether we deny our mortality though literal or symbolic immortality or try to turn death into something benign, our attempts fail us. But what if the real solution is not in denying death’s reality, but in acknowledging it while enjoying a hope for a wonderful forever? Clay Jones, a professor of Christian apologetics, explores the ways people face death and how these “immortality projects” are unsuccessful, even destructive. Along the way, he points to the hope of the only true immortality available to all—the truth that God already offers a path to our hearts’ deepest longing: glorious resurrection to eternal life.
