Imagine
a group of Canadians circled around a campfire. They have two things
in common: They’re serious Christians and committed writers.
“Let me tell you my conversion story,” calls out Deborah
Gyapong. Keith Clemons reads a short story and Brian Austin recites
an original poem. Grace Fox shares a devotional piece. As the fire
crackles and they sip their cider, all 30 speak from their hearts.
That’s the concept of Hot Apple Cider—and it’s
a good one.
—Cecil Murphey, author and co-author of more
than 100 books, including Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story
and the New York Times best-seller 90 Minutes in Heaven
