There are seven series posts (including Part Six which has four episodes relating to the famous Luke 15 Parable of the Prodigal Son which my The Prodigal Band Trilogy is clearly based on!) that relate to Bible References, including other parables spoken by Christ Himself in the New Testament to His Apostles and others. Two of the references relate to the consequences of siding with Evil, one of which is also out of the mouth of Christ as to the ‘outer darkness’ where there will be ‘weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ One reference deals with being ‘born again’ while another one claims that being ‘born again’ can be chosen by anyone, even the most reprobate of sinners (which my rock star characters definitely were!).

Born on Long Island, NY, in 1952, now live in the mountains of far west Texas. Began writing fiction stories at about 8 years old with pen and loose leaf paper, and created the characters in my Prodigal Band Trilogy as a teenager. From the 70s to the 90s I created the scenario which I believe was inspired. While bringing up and home schooling my two children I continued to work on the novels and published "Battle of the Band" in 1996 and "The Prophesied Band" in 1998. Took off the next several years to complete home schooling and also working as an office manager for the local POA. In 2016, I retired, then resumed The Prodigal Band, a FREE PDF book that tells the whole story to its glorious end. Hint: I'm a true believer in Christ and I'm on a mission from God, writing to future believers, not preaching to the choir. God gave me a talent and, like the band in my books, I am using that talent for His glory, not mine (and, like me, the band is on its own journey, only fictional.) I also wrote for my college newspaper and headed up production, was a columnist in a local newspaper in the early 2000s, and wrote for and edited "Log of the Trail," the news letter for the Texas Mountain Trail Writers, and wrote for and edited it's yearly catalog of writings, "Chaos West of the Pecos." OmegaBooks is my self-publishing sole proprietorship company founded in 1995. Other jobs included teaching secondary math, health aide, office worker, assembly line work, and free-lance writing and bookkeeping,much of it while home schooling.
