The unthinkable has happened. Tactical nuclear weapons have fallen into the hands of terrorists, and both the United States and Israel have been targeted. The Biblical prophecies are TRUE and the march toward the apocalypse us unstoppable.Tyler Dempsey is a suburban Kansas City pastor, just trying to work through the grief of losing his little brother to the war in Iraq. His world is jolted by new revelations of old, Bible prophecies. But when he takes it to his apathatic congregation, trouble meets him head on in the form of a brewing church conflict. Unknown to them all, the United States, and specifically Kansas City, are in the sights of vicious killers bent on nothing less than bringing the greatest nation on the planet to its knees. Ty can see it coming. Can you?
Strap in tight as Moshe and Ty are strangely connected in this first book of the “Lightning Chronicles Trilogy.” You will never forget what the Bible says is about to happen!
My Thoughts: This one was a bit of a stretch for me… I am not a nuclear, blow up the world, terrorist threat, type of reader. Yet, when I was offered this book to review…. I couldn’t think of a good reason to pass. There were elements of the book that spoke to me:
Jimmy Root Jr., has served as an ordained minister with the Assemblies of God since 1982, including service in Nebraska, Missouri, and a seven year term as a missionary in Colombia, South America. Jimmy is the lead Pastor of Family Worship Center of Smithville, a growing suburb of Kansas City, Missouri. Married to his wife Jean for twenty-nine years, the Roots have three grown children.
Root is a 1981 alumnus of Central Bible College of Springfield, Missouri where he majored in Biblical Studies and Pastoral Theology. He is also an alumnus of Southeastern University, Lakeland Florida, where he majored in Intercultural Studies.
A lifetime student of Biblical prophecy, Jimmy is also the Professor of Eschatology, The Study of End Times, for Berean University through the Northern Missouri District School of Ministry. He is a featured speaker at Churches and other venues, and is the host of “The Bible Uncensored” radio broadcast heard on radio stations around the country.
I received this book from Dorothy with Pump up Your Book Promotions

Well, Sheila, you make this one sound compelling! I’ve actually seen this title on a couple of blogs recently, so I may just have to add it to my HUGE list!! LOL
This sounds interesting but I’m not really a blow up the world kind of person either! Great review, but I’m not sure this book is for me…I guess not all books are, though! It still nice to see a review for all different books, you know!
That last sentence was supposed to say- Sorry I had a few typo’s- Gotta love’em!
It’s still nice to see reviews for all kinds of different books, whether you’ll read them or no, you know.
LOL! I didn’t word the top part of this comment right either, ha, ha, I’m sure you know what I mean, though! LOL! My hands just move too fast sometimes! LOL!
I had to laugh at “I am not a nuclear, blow up the world, terrorist threat, type of reader.” I don’t know if I am, but I sure love a lot of action. 😉
Thats ok… I call ’em like I see them….ha ha
This would be a stretch for me too I would think — not one that I would typically pick up. I would think of it as being more for my husband, who does like the blow the world up, terrorist threat novels 🙂 But you make it sound very intriquing so maybe I should give it a try!
I think you may be surprised with this one. I think the character development really helped it not be so harsh – as in there was a bigger meaning behind all the “explosive stuff”. 🙂
