Beautiful and Inspirational Love Story

Meet Rachel Green…
Rachel is a beautiful redhead who seemingly had it all—looks, brains, and a strong desire to pursue her greatest dreams. But is that enough to live a fulfilled life? Most of us know what love is. It can be both exhilarating as well as painful. But is there something more to it than what you feel? Why does it have to be so painful at times? Shouldn’t it last forever? Can you find love in this world, or is it somehow elusive? More importantly, what exactly is real love? Does the word mean more than one thing?

From the small community of Cottondale, Texas, to the outskirts of the big city of Atlanta, Georgia, Rachel has pursued an often painful path to following her most passionate dreams of discovering love. Enter, Harvey Gordon. Harvey is Rachel’s lifelong friend. Should their relationship be more than mere friendship? Is real love somehow in the cards for them?

Join author Wade J. Carey as he demonstrates what real love is from a biblical perspective—with all of its attributes and the world’s attempted impediments. In a narrative that touches all sixty-six books of the bible, see what God has to say about it … and what it most definitely is not. Can you find love in this world? Further, can you find real love without God?

Find out Rachel’s story in this third, stand-alone installment in the Parables Series. You don’t want to miss it.

Sacrificial Love

I recently had the great pleasure of reading one of the most inspiring books of the year. Top Of The Mountain: a story about real love by Wade Carey is the third outstanding book I have read by this skilled author. As in his other books, Top Of The Mountain is a heartfelt and honest book with realistic characters and their struggles with life, death, faith, hope, love, and emotional pain. I enjoyed how the characters confront real-life issues with practical and biblical solutions. As the characters face the complicated issues of life, the word of God is expressed and implicated in their testimony.

This writing style awakens and fortifies my own faith in God’s beautiful love. I found myself reading the treasure-laden paragraphs over and over. Sometimes even stopping to write reference scripture. It moved me so thoroughly. This author has helped me understand and internalize age-old scripture. The unforgettable characters became powerful education and entertaining forces that captivated and inspired me page after page. Besides Jesus, of course, my favorite character is Jerry. The humble general store proprietor who possesses insight and wisdom that will blow your mind. Obviously one of God’s mighty figures of truth and guidance.

Just like the other two books by Wade Carey that I’ve read, I found that this story was beautifully structured. Flowing without interruption, you can tell that this book was proofed and edited with great love and care. From the cover art to the last paragraph this book was sweet perfection.

Book Review of Parables · Volume II – Late Night Breakfast: a vision of hope

About The Parables Volume II Book:

Step on up and get fed!

Meet Juan Montoya …

Juan is an over-the-road truck driver who has fallen into complete despair. An incredibly evil and random act of violence has taken his family from him, and now, he is trying to pick up the pieces and move on with his life. As he struggles with this tragic loss, Juan feels that life really has no meaning anymore. Although he believes in God, deep down, he feels that the Lord has somehow abandoned him. On a daily basis, Juan feels searing pain—a pain that must end.

Enter Reggie Harper. Reggie is a fellow truck driver who reaches out to his friend Juan and shows him how to overcome his loss by leading him towards understanding the virtues of biblical hope. Reggie has already learned that without real hope, life can seem utterly meaningless. But what exactly is hope? How can someone’s life be enhanced by something that sounds so good, but can also seem so vague?

Join Juan as he happens upon a strange and unexpected restaurant during a most interesting night, the Hotcake Haus on Grace Highway. There, Juan encounters the oddest thing: a menu that features dishes that are inspired by the various types of hope found in the Bible. During his life-changing visit to this quaint southern diner, Juan’s soul is finally fed what it truly needs—real hope, that can only be found in Jesus Christ.

In this stand-alone installment in the Parables series, your soul will be fed as the reader walks through what is perhaps the most intertwined blessing throughout the entire Bible—real hope.

Hauler with Heart and Soul

My Review Of This Parable About Hope Book:

Just finished the second book from this awesome writer, Wade Carey. With a very fitting title, Parables · Volume II – Late Night Breakfast: a vision of hope is the second in the series about spiritual warfare. After reading the first volume of parables, I was patiently anticipating this book. And once again I was enriched with a new story that entertained and enlightened me through every page. In my experience, it is hard to find a storyteller of this caliber and quite refreshing when I do.

I really enjoyed Reggie, the main character, a quiet unassuming mentor of faith and hope through kindness and compassion. In this story, Reggie’s character is a long haul trucker with access to numerous people and places. What a great idea for a main character – not what you would expect for this subject matter. Once again Wade Carey has written a great book with meticulous attention to detail. Which really shows. I just love the cover art, perfectly fitting for this book. I must also mention the easy flow of this story thanks to excellent proofing and editing making Parables · Volume II – Late Night Breakfast: a vision of hope really shine. This book is highly recommended to everyone. I shall be keeping my eyes open for Parables · Volume III.

Book Review of Parables · Volume I – Garden of Life: a parable about faith by Wade Carey

About The Parables · Volume I Book:

Meet Henry Johnson …
Henry is a regular guy in his forties who is truly living the American Dream. He is a loving family man and successful business owner. He and his wife Helen just bought a new home and the future looks bright. However, there is something missing from Henry’s life. Actually, the most important thing in the world is missing—the hope of eternal life.

Enter Jerry, Henry’s new next door neighbor. Jerry is a committed follower of Jesus Christ. As Henry and Jerry get to know each other, their friendship grows, despite their spiritual differences. While Henry is totally turned-off by religion, Jerry loves the Lord with all his heart. Henry soon finds himself intrigued by Jerry’s powerful faith, so they make an agreement to examine the basic beliefs of the Christian faith together.

Join author Wade J. Carey as he weaves together a unique narrative of twelve interconnected parables centered on the fundamentals of faith in Jesus Christ. By using a quick-moving story and an abundance of scripture, Garden of Life: a parable about faith spotlights several essential concepts critical to understanding biblical Christianity.

Why does evil exist? What separates us from God? What would it be like to know who Jesus Christ really is—without the hindrance of religion or ceremony? What is true faith? These questions and more are answered in this first installment of the new Parables series.

Heaven’s Handyman

My Review Of This Parable About Faith Book:

Once in a while, I read a book that moves me both physically and spiritually. Well, I just finished such a read. This awesome book titled, Garden of Life: a parable about faith is written by a brilliant storyteller, Wade Carey. This simple yet powerful story involves a man and his family, new to the neighborhood, and a quiet and unassuming handyman who lives next door. This handyman changes the paths of his new neighbors’ spiritual lives. The father, Henry struggles with his spiritual journey and the handyman mentors him through home repairs, as well as, Biblical guidance.

This awesome book completely engrossed all my attention. The way the author developed the characters namely Jerry the mentor and the struggling apprentice, Henry was brilliant. I just love the way that book was written in Q and A style. A progressive explanation of the Bible and God’s will. This book was very powerful to me which helped my understanding and retention of scripture. I really appreciate the slow explanations and examples backed by Biblical truth. Overall, an awesome, inspiring, and well-written story with great characters, editing, and structure. I am looking forward to reading volume II. Obviously, this author is talented and greatly blessed. I must thank him for this educational and inspiring book.
