"Preacherman Blues" by Jihad

Book Description:

PREACHERMAN BLUES is the story of:

"Best friends...Mega preachers…One good….One evil….

As kids, Terrell "TJ" Money and Percival "PC" Turner had one goal – become big-time preachers. But once they accomplished that goal, heading up One World Faith; the largest church in the Southeast, the best friends disagree on just how they should be leading their flock. TJ is living up to his name and looking to capitalize on a congregation more than willing to shell out big bucks for a “man of God”. Percival tries hard to walk the straight and narrow, but eventually the lure of the bling leads him astray.

Can either survive?

When PC tries to right his wrong ways, the battle lines will be drawn and best friends will see sides of each other they never knew existed. Soon, TJ gets down and dirty – pulling up every trick and devastating secret to keep his holy money train rolling. Will Percival learn the hard way that TJ is a sinner who doesn’t want to be saved? And if he does, will it be in time enough to stop tragedy from turning his own life upside down? When the dust settles someone will definitely be singing the Preacherman Blues.

What I liked about the novel....

Yes, this was a very interesting read in the world of mega churches. This was a very captivating story of these two childhood friends who were now pastors of the largest churches in Atlanta which was a dream to have their ministry and it was called 'One World Faith. AME.' I loved how this author was able to bring it all out front and center to the reader when we find from the read that one pastor was really trying to serve God and his people and then there was the other pastor who definitely was not showing his vindictiveness in all of his actions. It seems like when they become rich from their congregation that 'greed' will become very ugly front and center. What will happen when one of the pastor try to right the wrongs that are taking place in the church? There will be so many twist and turns in the read so get ready for: some 'manipulation, deception, murder, adultery, suspense, greed, lust' and I am sure there is more to add to this list. Be prepared to laugh and even cry at some of the situations that will go on with these colorful characters. To get it all from this author you will have to pick up "Preacherman Blues" to see for yourself how this story will all come out. Believe me, this novel will be very interesting page turner that I would recommend.… (meer)
