Message from Everald Compton about the book launch:
You will enjoy this powerful and inspirational page turning novel about the lives of six very different people.
Its fascinating pages will reveal to you that they are Muslim, Jew, Christian, Indigenous, Confucian, LGBTI.
In varying ways and at different times they choose to adopt Jesus the Man as their role model and try to walk with him, each in their own personal way, to help create a better world. You will be inspired and entertained by the way they meet many challenges and obstacles along the way, especially from fundamentalists with closed minds.
I have written WALK IN THE SPIRIT in partnership with a fellow author of good books, Neill Florence, who, like me, is 94 years of age. Our book seeks to enhance the spirituality of people who don’t go to Church or attend any other religious place. It is a sequel to my book ‘Walking with the Man’ except that it is a novel about real people.
For Neill and I, this fascinating journey leads you and us to Uluru as the spiritual heart of Australia on my 95th birthday, an experience that we can enjoy together.
So, may we personally invite you to join us at two inspirational events.
*The launch of ‘Walk in the Spirit’ in Brisbane on Friday, 27 March at Noon at Royal on the Park in Alice Street.
It is a fund raiser for Dorcas ACTS. You can sign up on https://tinyurl.com/dorcasbooklaunch.
Cost includes a drink, Uluru beef burger, signed book and gift to Dorcas.
Speakers include Paul de Jersey, Rebecca Levingston, David Muir, Neill, and me.
*A very real ‘Walk in the Spirit’ experience of eleven kilometres around Uluru on my 95th birthday on 5 October this year.
It is planned to raise 100,000 dollars for Dorcas ACTS, a Uniting Church charity I founded 15 years ago that gives cash grants directly to people in crisis situations.
