The Odds of Gods: Why Christians Should Not Tell Lies

By Rush O. C. Campbell

Rashman has always found it difficult to rectify his faith with the reality of the world around him. A Christian of 55 years, his belief becomes a point of contention with his family when he falls ill and subsequently struggles to maintain a sense of financial stability. Refusing to attempt to treat his ailments and instead putting his faith in God, he's abandoned by the people who are supposed to be the closest to him, challenging his faith in the process. Realising that his understanding of Christianity has slowly - but surely - been drifting away from that of other believers, Rashman undergoes a Revelation, which crystallises ideas that have been plaguing him for years. Concerned about the hypocrisy of other Christians, stemming from their lack of commitment to, and their sheer misunderstanding of, God's word, Rashman sets out on a quest to preach this re-evaluation of the Christian belief system. In his eyes, the burdens and problems inherent to everyday life, be it poverty, sickness or death, have been compounded with a general feeling of unease and confusion which has resulted in an incorrect image of God as the higher power they want Him to be, rather than the reality. Of course, this campaign doesn't come easy, and not everyone is willing to unlearn and disregard the lifestyle and beliefs they've been deepening for decades in order to rethink His word. Challenging this perception of God and other Holy Scriptures, The Odds of the Gods spins a biting tale based on true events all about interrogating what belief means in the modern age, and how ignorance may have led so many down a path from which there is no coming back.
