Welcome
We live in a society hugely affected by
technology. Technology in turn depends upon good connections.
It is our desire to do all we can to help individuals connect
with Jesus Christ, and with other believers. We pray this
website serves as a tool toward that end.

- Book Corner: Reunion by Mark Cahill
Four high school seniors make a commitment to return to every high school reunion before they step onto the journey of life. Follow them from their 10th through 60th class reunions, and see how much their lives change. Which paths will they take and what influences will shape their choices? The real key is who is going to meet up together on the other side for the final reunion! Topics such as suicide, creation/evolution, absolute vs. relative truth, racism, homosexuality, Islam, and a host of other issues are covered with a quick pace and light-hearted humor. This realistic novel is set in the famous surroundings of Stone Mountain, GA that is rich in history. Glimpses of the Confederacy and Deep South are in view as the story unfolds. People have said it's a real page-turner that can be read in one sitting because it's so riveting and hard to put down! This book will have you thinking about your future and the future of those around you.
