Hiding Behind The Cross

By D Elias Loadholt Sr

In Hiding Behind the Cross, Pastor Raymond Johnson stands at a spiritual and emotional crossroads. Once a rising star in ministry, his journey is complicated by the shadows of a past marriage, the pressures of leadership, and the quiet ache of loneliness. As he strives to serve his congregation and be present for his daughter, Raymond finds himself caught between a love he thought was lost and a new connection he never saw coming.

Shannon Walker-Johnson, a successful executive and devoted mother, has spent years rebuilding her life after heartbreak. But when her path intersects once more with Raymond-and the new woman quietly entering his world-old wounds resurface, forcing her to confront truths she thought were buried.

Tasha, Shannon's younger sister, faces her own reckoning as a single mother trying to walk in faith while navigating the complexities of forgiveness and identity.

Set against the backdrop of a vibrant urban ministry, Hiding Behind the Cross is a poignant, faith-driven novel exploring redemption, grace, and the difficult choices that define who we become. With raw emotion and spiritual depth, D. Elias Loadholt Sr. invites readers into a story of second chances, sacred tension, and the unwavering love of a God who meets us-even when we hide.
