There, fresh ideas-and people as diverse as brilliant anti-feminist Madeleine, the musical genius Bryce, and very earthy Julie Burns-pull his soul in opposing directions. 'By chance' he prevents the murder of a Ugandan refugee, catapulting him irrevocably into a world of need and danger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack-and-white thinking proves no help to Stephen upon encountering the blood-red reality of violence in East Africa some years later. He finds that he too has the capacity to harm others. When a case of mistaken identity nearly destroys his family, he must start afresh in a 'civilized' place where safety remains elusive. Friends and colleagues, as different as the four elements, all labor to make the world a better place. But in the end, who will succeed?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Wrong Side of Eternity offers a deeply personal view of how people with very different perspectives respond to and deal with suffering. Comparable to The Poisonwood Bible and Th e Constant Gardener, Mary Mendenhall's sweeping passion narrative depicts grim reality without giving in to hopelessness and despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Mendenhall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798896762300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arpress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/18\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.76d","brand":"Mary Mendenhall","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47520733561087,"sku":"9798896762300","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3e48e0c0-1482-45b6-be7c-8b39a0fef5b1.jpg?v=1762886778","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-wrong-side-of-eternity-mary-mendenhall-9798896762300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
