Profit of God is a story about a group of young friends who set out on a summer-long work program for a local mega church in the northern woodlands of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan for some cash: what they actually discover couldn't be less mundane. The narrative soon centers around a pair of the friends who stumble on an ancient mystery. The two have a disruptive yet captivating encounter with a spiritual entity which guards a secret of the woods, and the fevered pursuit of an ambitious (and, rather worldly) church. Compelled by the entity to embark on a spiritual journey, the pair go through the murky, revealing, and raw features of life and the human condition. Guided by their unintended companion, they survey the real-life challenges toward faith, and explore timeless questions about the nature of reality, the universe, and the meaning of life (and, death), and love, sharing a dialogue set just above the limits of time... and pages of written word. A shocking discovery soon turns the story on its head- and into the dirt. Profit of God was intended to be a work of fiction which leaves the reader with whatever they'd like to glean from it's pages: distinctly spiritual, but not preachy; concise, yet deep; engaging & entertaining... but, maybe, thought provoking. * Foreword: this book contains potentially distressing depictions of suicidal allusions, illicit drug use, sexually explicit material, and gratuitous use of profanity. Reader discretion is advised. ** Task: find the hidden, '6', in the text of the story. *** Profit of God: Sunesis Addendum is a version of the novel, Profit of God, where the exclusive difference is an addition at the end of the main text of an image of an introductory sample of a work known as, "Sunesis" which is mentioned in the story, itself. The story is identical to all other versions of "Profit of God".
