The Calling of Jujubee Forthright
"Have you ever wanted to jump through the
pages of a book and hug the main character? Well,
hold on to your chairs; The Calling of Jujubee
Forthright is that kind of book!
...Readers
will want to jump up and shout 'Hallelujah!'during
the final pages of this terrific book. Jujubee Forthright
is a remarkable character with a heart full of love
and a burning desire to serve the Lord. This story
breathes a promise of the glorious power of God to
save us, and the incredible ways in which He does
just that."

"Some
stories start slow, but not The Calling of Jujubee
Forthright, Scott Philip Stewart's new novel
– a modern-day rendering of the Parable of
the Pharisee and the Sinner in a Georgia setting....
"As
he steps out, Jujubee looks increasingly like Jesus,
recognizing divine encounters even at the Stop-N-Hop,
where he finds a fierce-looking former newspaper
delivery man with a mullet and a three-day-old beard
browsing the pornographic magazine rack. Here Stewart's
skill shines. In minutes and without a trace of
preaching, Jujubee empathetically invites him to
'Follow me' – and he does. In these fine moments,
Stewart reveals his own heart. In the end, of course,
Jujubee, his calling, and his companions all come
to their anticipated, happy, and eternally secure
end. Stewart does it, however, with rare, inventive
word play completely devoid of worn-out church phraseology.
His characters, full of excitement and humor, aim
higher."

The Healing of Ryne O'Casey
"The
main force of this book is faith, pure and simple.
Even in the face of the harshest of realities, Ryne’s
faith carries the day. This book is too good not to
write about. I highly recommend it for its laughter-
and tear-invoking truths."
—Beth
Alston
Americus Times-Recorder
"...a
soulful tale of faith lost and renewed through trials,
this book is a gem."
