The Turning

Read The Turning Storyline:

The message was unexpected but instantly recognizable.  A voice resonated from a distance and somehow from within.  Against all earthly logic, it carried a divine command.  And five very different people knew they were summoned to obey.Their actions were demanding, but not particularly grand.  Only later would they see a pattern emerge - one that links their tasks together and comes to challenge the cultural direction of the nation.  They realize that one small personal response unveiled a new realm of moral responsibility.  And this affirmation of everyday hope captures the attention of millions. But power and money are at stake.  Malicious elements soon align themselves to counter the trend.  To succeed they must also undermine its source.  Can we really believe that God speaks to people today?  Surely this must be dismissed as superstition or delusion.  These well-intentioned but misguided individuals should not be allowed to cast our society back into the Dark Ages. The public debate and media frenzy place an unprecedented spotlight on knowing and doing God's will.  The five encounter threats, but try to remain steadfast in their faith.  Had God indeed imparted wisdom on selected individuals?  Is this sweep of events part of his divine purpose?  The movement may herald a profound renewal - one that some are calling The Turning... Review"Bunn has created a stunning, multilayered tale of power and, ultimately, hope." - Publishers Weekly, 2/21/14"Bunn is no stranger to bestsellers (Strait of Hormuz, Lion of Babylon), and his fans no strangers to taut tales of suspense and intrigue. This time Bunn pits a small group of Christians against one of the world's most powerful media giants. Trent Cooper, a low-level advertising exec, sees his big chance when he proposes uniting Global Communications' divisions in an effort to "create the most powerful cultural force on Earth." His theme? "Hope Is Dead." Five religious believers, each one called by God and unknown to the others, have gathered in a New York hotel lobby, where they witness the "Hope Is Dead" media event. They, with friends and family, gather at the headquarters of Barrett Ministries to develop and launch their own media campaign-one that offers hope in God and rallies believers worldwide. A small band of believers vs. a powerful media conglomerate: Bunn has created a stunning, multilayered tale of power and, ultimately, hope." - Publishers Weekly, 2/21/14"Once I started reading The Turning, I was hooked.  I don't think I have ever read a book this quickly and didn't want it to end." - Jamie Tomkins,  Tiger Strypes Blog, www.tigerstrypes.com.Review"The Turning is the most refreshing and inspired page turner in recent years. It captures your heart, mind and spirit with a real connection to His Grace. The Turning is highly commended. Davis Bunn has scaled new heights and brought us with him." - Ted Baehr, President of Movieguide'The Turning is a triumph.  This novel contains a remarkable mix of high drama, great characters, and a truly inspired examination of what it means to discern the voice of God.  This above all else makes the book stand out.  Readers will be captivated by Bunn's story, and challenged by this invitation to seek a deeper walk with our Lord.  The Turning invites us to heed God's call, not with an absence of fear, but rather the mastery of it." - Roy Crowne, Director Emeritus, Youth for Christ & CEO, The Hope Project"Does God still speak to his followers today? That's the question and the power of this high-stakes prophetic novel ripped straight from tomorrow's headlines.  The Turning is a mesmerizing look at people who believe they heard the voice of God.  The unforgettable cast of characters, and the conflicting themes of divine hope against man's darker motives, made for one amazing read." -Allen Arnold, Director of Content, Ransom Heart Ministries
