With God, all things are possible,
This review is from: Soon and Very Soon (Urban Christian) (Paperback)
Meet Vanessa Morton, a strong, independent woman destined for ministry or as some would see it, simply an heir to her daddy's pulpit. Then there's Pastor Willie Green, the attentive and compassionate pastor of the traditional Harvest Baptist Church. By mutual acquaintances, two pastors of two independent churches meet and God's vision enters the picture. Soon and Very Soon is a story of triumph and faith. It tells the story of a woman demanding respect as a female of the cloth and not settling for less, it is a story of a woman realizing that she can still grow spiritually herself at the same time she is charged to minister to others. It is the story of the test of a man's faith and trust in God. What happens when members of the church don't see a pastor's vision, what happens when a church divides, what do churches experience when memberships combine? Read Soon and Very Soon and you'll find out just what a feat like this entails. Can Vanessa be a supportive wife? Will she take a backseat to her husband? Will Willie ever stop worrying or stop long enough to spend quality time with his wife? Good supporting characters Keisha, Paul and Deacon Charley Thompson help the story along. All the characters learn through obedience and faith, that God will make a way.

Love Conquers All,
This review is from: Soon and Very Soon (Urban Christian) (Paperback)
Pastor Willie Green has devoted his life to leading Harvest Baptist Church. The members have become accustomed to his attentive nurturing and fierce love of God. So it stands to reason that many of them are unsettled when Pastor Green marries Vanessa Morton after a 10-month courtship. See Vanessa is the dedicated and charismatic pastor of Mt. Pleasant Baptist church and her contemporary way of preaching the Gospel doesn't set well with the traditional customs of Harvest Baptist. When the Green's return from their honeymoon they announce that their churches will unite which ignites division in not only the congregations but their new happy marriage.
SOON AND VERY SOON is a story of love and faith. The character development is off the chain, you will feel part of the Green household and see exactly what pastors do after service. While the supporting characters add realism to the story, especially Deacon Charley and Sister Keisha as we know how church folks and relatives can act up. Jackson pays particular attention to describing scenes, applying scriptures, encouraging readers through the use of mini sermons while adding a touch of suspense between the lines. SOON AND VERY SOON is a quick read that will make you laugh, stand up and say AMEN and help you realize that LOVE conquers all. The ending is screaming for a sequel as Deacon Charley is still up to no good. Deltareviewer Reviewing for Real Page Turners

In God's Time,
By
This review is from: Soon and Very Soon (Urban Christian) (Paperback)
"Soon and Very Soon" Is well written and comical at times. As you learn along with Pastor Willie Green and Pastor Vanessa Morton that God moves on his own time. You are pulled into a world of backstabbing, name calling, holy ghost trotting baptist church goers.The characters are so real you will start to feel you are sitting on a pew at any neighborhood baptist church.
