    About this ebook

    A sleepy passenger wrestles in seat 4C of Shepherd Air Flight 4316, the last flight out of New Orleans. F. Jordan Landham, once Hopeland Morning Journal's two-time winner of Tennessee journalism's most prestigious award, now contemplates the journey back to his hometown; this time, as a potential pastor. As he travels alone, he carried both physical luggage and a lifetime of inner baggage. Can he overcome his fears? Can he set his doubts aside before 11 a.m. Sunday morning? What about the revenge-seeking tactics? And that private battle no one sees? What about the memories of the past? And after the shooting stops, can he practice Christ's forgiveness while his own blood runs down the gilded edges of his Bible?
