Descending Chaos (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798897639434)

An unassuming country home rests among the farm fields in the southwestern community of Indiana. Unlike many homes in America, the walls surrounding the family that grew up within the loving home have witnessed seeds of chaos--chaos that was kept at bay for many years as the result of one faith-filled soul.

The Brandt family was anchored by their matriarch until she was no more. She was a woman of character but still flawed, holding her sons, daughter, and old cuss of a husband together through a tormented world. At times, despite her best efforts, trying to hide, ignore, or absorb the pain of her loved ones proved too much.

Ms. Emily's desire to be a fixer led many to a relationship with Christ, but for those she loved the most, she struggled like so many of us do as we long to provide a smooth path through this life for those we love. But darkness is always creeping on the edges.

In the blink of an eye, those adult sons, daughter, and husband of five decades, along with their families, were all alone. They were fractured by a cursed world that exposed their misappropriated faith in one mortal, not the one who created her.

With darkness no longer restrained and emboldened by world events, the remaining members of the Brandt family face a barrage of events to stop a movement of light--the light of hope and faith in God that is breaking through into an increasingly dark world.

Inspired by real-life events you and I live in today, the Brandt family's heartbreak, love, struggles, and successes are no different from those we all deal with daily.

Life and death play out in this continuous struggle that has existed since Abel's blood cried out to the Lord, leaving Cain to wander aimlessly through his cursed world in chaos. A world in descending chaos.
