Indivisible - In Theaters October 26

My next movie hits theaters Oct. 26th. It's called Indivisible, based on a true story. I had the privilege of working with the director and co-writing this film. You can see the trailer here and do a search for theaters near you. For Grey's Anatomy fans... there are a few familiar faces. :)

INDIVISIBLE is based on the extraordinary true story of Army Chaplain Darren Turner and his wife Heather. With a strong, faith-filled marriage, the Turners are ready to follow their calling: serving God, family, and country.

In honor of the 56th anniversary of The Bump, the big coal mining disaster I use for the novel, Song of Springhill, I'm running a Kindle / Ebook special on both Song of Springhill and Spirit of Springhill (the book of true life stories) for 1.99 each on Amazon now through Oct. 29th. Such wonderful men were taken from the world too soon, and also some of the most amazing men were miraculously rescued. So thankful my grandfather was one of those who walked out of the mine, never to go down again---and moved Dad to Massachusetts so he could meet my mom. :)
