Opis

Ten-year-old Alex Cavender watches in horror as the old stone church implodes. In a world where Christians have been intimidated, to the point some already believe it is illegal to attend church, Luke Davis has the guts to stand for Jesus. In the face of bribery, blackmail, deception, church and car bombings, and even murder, he stands. Luke believes he has been called to stand against the bill the House has passed to outlaw Christianity. The Senate is deadlocked on the bill, and the vice president, John Paul Cavender, is about to break the tie. His party, with financial backing from the American Freedom Association, supports the legislation. When the slightest hint he won't vote with his party leads to the death of a family member, he realizes that no one is safe until the bill passes. Will there be a way to reverse it later, or is this the end of Christianity? Tiebreaker explores a not too distant future in which our nation is tested. How many rights, guaranteed by our Constitution, will we allow to be denied before we take a stand? The strength of family, faith, and forgiveness are weighed against greed, corruption, and bigotry.
