Saving Ebenezer: The Continuing Saga of a man named Scrooge

By S. Daniel Smith

Book Overview

Seven years after Jacob Marley and the three ghosts of Christmas changed Ebenezer's life, Scrooge has a problem. He's given away most of his money and brightened many lives, restored churches, and made London workhouses better for those living and working inside. If only all of that made him feel better about his life...Doubt plagues Ebenezer. Even with all of his philanthropy, he still has questions he can't answer. Are the scales balanced? Did he do enough good after that fateful Christmas Eve to avoid Jacob Marley's fate? And after a very special person dies, he adds another question: Why did God let it happen? When he falls ill himself, Ebenezer's questions take on a new desperation. From the Cratchits to the workhouse fundraisers to nephew Fred, you'll be reintroduced to several old friends, as well as a few new ones. With each visitor, Ebenezer tries to get closer to the answers to his questions. As the clock starts to run out, Ebenezer will need the words from an old friend to tip the scales in his favor. Saving Ebenezer picks up on a story started by Charles Dickens in 1843 with A Christmas Carol. Christians will appreciate a heartwarming story of God's love shown in tragedy while all readers will enjoy the common points between Saving Ebenezer and the original work.
