Centered in the Scriptures, Behold, the Bridegroom Cometh, 21st Century Edition, effectively marries nonfiction with fiction to create a work of art that encourages, exhorts, and instructs the single Christian who wants to be married, especially women who are also seeking a closer relationship with Jesus. Examine overcoming experiences from the author's life - episodes from her childhood, how she recovers from being a widow at the age of 19, her emotional and spiritual growth, and how God brought her together with her husband. Lisa and Vernetta, fictitious characters, will journey with you through the book. Their comments and questions to the author - and to the Biblical characters the author uses as examples - will help you examine issues and concerns facing today's single Christian.

Behold the State I’m In begins a series of allegorical novels that chronicle the lives of the Christianson family — Patience, Temperance, Goodness, Sister, Soldier, Heart, and Ernest. God’s presence in the book through His Word and through the main character, Patience, who fights to cleave to Him, opens new territory in the story of the migration of many African-Americans northward. The unfolding of Patience’s life—her grim determination to escape the evil of her father’s wife Mumzy, the flowering of her love of God in marriage with Will B. Done, and her confrontation with injustice and cruelty—becomes both a spiritual parable and a profound and enriching glimpse into a human soul.
