The Turning by Davis Bunn

Author Davis Bunn The Turning
The Turning by Davis Bunn

The Turning by Bestselling and Christy Award winning author Davis Bunn

A voice. A message. Five dissimilar people. Thirteen days of high-stakes spiritual warfare. A businessman with a speech impediment and a crucial report to give. 

A heavy black gal choir director summoned to apologize to her prodigal sister. A Sunday School teacher with a wasted nephew. A wayward Chinese American woman with a proud heritage who humbly makes peace with her father. 

A patchwork of characters with different backgrounds and motivations offer and accept apologies to make peace with the greatest source of conflicts in their lives. They bond to obey God’s call to restrain a rampantly exploding, diabolical lie. Against all earthly logic, a divine command, and an unforeseen meeting results in a challenge to the cultural direction of the nation and wages war against the most powerful and influential industry in North America.
