Just finished Wisdom Hunter-the truths represented about how we, as christians, should be living really helps put things into perspective! Question-who is Corinna? Is she one of those people who God puts into our lives at just the right time? I even thought she may have been an angel representing his dead daughter (Cory + Hannah= Corinna)-this may sound far-fetched, but just curious as Corinna was never located in Jason's search or mentioned inthe rest of the story.

I just finished reading "Betrayal" and I could not put it down until I finished it! I also read "Wisdom Hunter" a few weeks ago and passed it on to my husband and then in turn to friends. We were all enthralled with it and read it in record time. I now have to find "Jordan's Crossing"

In response to Lauri's comment about the way Mr. Randall wrote regarding the legalistic behaviour in his book "Betrayal" was done in a hateful way. Lauri if you ever have been in a legalistic church you would understand where he was coming from. I have been there and do not care to go back. He was right on.

Does anyone know if he has a new novel coming out? I have read all three of his books. I appreciate how much they relate to real life as a christian.

Mr. Arthur,
I found this website--I couldn't use the one listed at the end of the book. I liked the ending, I guess. It was a bit lacking because I wanted so much for Clay McCain to knock on Rachel's door after he tailed them in his broken down car. I also wish that Rachel and the kids could've read his letter. Neither of these alternate endings I wanted would've done the family any good. They were in the healing process and his showing up on her doorstep would complicate things again. I was deep into Clay's perspective, though. The actual ending you chose impacted the heinousness Clay's actions by the consequences he suffered. I liked the book a lot and enjoyed reading it. It usually takes me 2 or 3 weeks to read a book, but I couldn't put this one down.
Number 7 on the discussion guide was what would I have done differently than Clay McCain. I would have not waited so long to make my presence known to Rachel. I would've hung up on those pompous legalistic snobs at Metro Church when he called them for Rachel's address. He waited too long to leave Anika and then too long to leave that area. He should've thought that maybe Rachel was in a relationship and since he should've called her.
I have a question that you may not be able to answer via email, but I'll ask anyway. I'm very disturbed by the legalistic behavior, but it was depicted in an expecially hateful vein in your book. I know it's fiction, but do people behave in churches these characters in your book, namely, Pastor Reese and Lovett? Thank you for writing such a great book. Even though I would've done some things differently, if you had written them that way, the book wouldn't have been so infectious.
