Publisher's summary

Two years ago, to everyone's surprise, Dillon Whitfield Black, the secret son of Reverend Curtis Black, boldly moved back home, married a woman named Raven, decided he was going to become a minister, and then founded a church right in the center of his living room. Today he's pastor of a 1,000-plus-member congregation, and new members are joining weekly.

Sadly, behind closed doors Dillon is far from being a saint. He has become more like the man his father was 30 years ago - consumed with money, power, and lots of women. His family may have forgiven him, but they continue to keep their distance.

Not Alicia, though. This daughter of Curtis Black joins Dillon's congregation, leaving her father's church behind. The family has forgiven Alicia for marrying Levi Cunningham, the former drug dealer she had an affair with, but once Alicia realizes they will never fully accept Levi, she decides to see her family less and less.

But when Raven decides she wants a higher position in the church and Alicia hides a devastating secret, the entire family is affected in ways they don't see coming. In the end no one will be able to trust anyone...and for very good reason.

Another Great Book!

This book touched on so many issues many face within the church but probably are too scared and ashamed to share! Suffering in silence is not God's plan for us!! Thanks for another Pastor Black and family journey!

The Black Saga Continues

This was perhaps one of the best Black stories I can remember. The series is awesome however this one seals the deal on so many family challenges. If you are looking for suspense, reality, and understanding of life's lessons, this one does for you. See a renewed Black family.

A must read /listen Audible Book

The story grips you. It's not just the drama but it's the story behind the drama that helps you to get the full picture of why people make the choices they make. For me it was healing!

Wonderful read!!th

This book had me laughing, crying and cursing. Dylan had some issues and he still resented his dad but I'm soooo glad at the way things ended. This was definitely a good read.
