THE CHRONICLES OF A MODERN DAY JONAH

What Would Happen If You Ignored God’s Voice?

Meet Jonah Dunningbrook. He has everything he wants. He is the pastor of the largest, fastest-growing church in the county, happily married to his high school sweetheart, and blessed with two beautiful children. He is one of the most wellknown and respected men in the city of Crawford.

One day God tells Jonah to give up his cherished church and move to the poverty-stricken, war-torn country of Burundi, Africa. He refuses and soon tragedy swallows Jonah’s perfect life. He tries to run away from the God he once served, only to find another storm of trials. Ultimately, his path will either lead to redemption…or destruction.

Detour To A Dream explores the never-ending struggle between self and submission. Follow Jonah as he begins his journey and discovers along the way that within every situation, in spite of his resistance, there is an opportunity to experience God’s grace and accept that God’s plans cannot be stopped.

RON DECKER is glad to find a way to put his years of book reading and movie watching to good use. He studied creative writing at Cal State Northridge, and now studies life and human behavior at the foot of the surrounding red mountains of southern Utah. This is his debut novel.
