GOD'S BRIDGE: A Novel, by Jack Perkins From Emmy Award-winning journalist and author Jack Perkins comes a lyrical novel about the value of family, friends, and history, and the two loves of one man's life - God and wife. How can an iron truss bridge, valiantly built generations ago by entrepreneurial American builders, bring together a young man and the young woman who will bring him to the love of God and a life together? In his new novel, God's Bridge, Perkins has created a searching, intense main character who travels a broad canvas of our country's events, from the Civil Rights movement to Vietnam, from the fevered bustle of New York City to a bucolic stone house by the small but mighty rural bridge where he heals and finds his faith in the love of friends and his future wife and through them, the life-saving words of The Bible. Over a bridge of time, from a deadly church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama to a healing gathering months later in a Birmingham stadium filled with the followers of Billy Graham, the protagonist is continuously directed in almost mysterious ways-by the kindness of strangers and colleagues, believers and non-believers- towards the ancestral home near a family-owned bridge over the Delaware River (which still exists in real life today) and a father and daughter whose land near that bridge was swallowed up by foolish government intervention. Through a delicate courtship and the gift of a bible, our lovers establish a lifelong commitment to each other and to the word of God.
