Bruce Edward Butler

The Sacrifice of Jack Bruce Edward Butler

"We just want to talk to you, Johnny," the man yelled into the darkness. "Then we'll let all of you go. But this is your last chance. If you don't come out right now, I'm gonna hurt your little scout buddies." After Johnny's scout troop witnessed a murder, he escaped into the sage brush. Everyone said he did the right thing by remaining hidden, but he never believed that. He could still hear his friends voices pleading with him to come out of hiding and save them. ------ Johnny, who now goes by Jack, is middle-aged and comfortable. None of his church friends know he's the lone survivor of the Guadalupe Massacre. Even though his entire life has been molded by that terrible event, terror is the last thing he expects in this season of his life. But someone's about to change that, and the stakes will be much higher than in his childhood. Is meaningless, violent death his destiny, or is this his opportunity to redeem his past? Whichever, Jack is about to grow very close to God.
