New book by Charles

Odd Man Out: My Story of Misplaced Faith in the American Dream and the Age of Aquarius

Apologies for this, but this access link to Odd Man Out is temporarily unavailable due to some changes being made to the cover. Hope to have this sorted soon. Thank you for your patience. CS

"Odd Man Out is inspiring, humorous, and will keep you on the edge of your seat." - James Trimble, singer/songwriter, US

"[A] deeply authentic piece of personal story-telling." - Liz Ray - media producer/presenter, UK

". . . the book has the same compelling quality as Pilgrim’s Progress and becomes about Everyman rather than the author." - Alan Storkey, author, UK

"Odd Man Out is a realistic account of a life set in the midst of a generation attempting to find meaning through worldviews alternate to both traditional religions and a secularism on its way to nihilism." - James W. Sire, author of The Universe Next Door and Apologetics Beyond Reason, US

"An enthralling read. It takes us on a poignant spiritual journey. . . I loved this book and so will you!" - Mark Roques, author, storyteller, and director of RealityBites, UK

"Odd Man Out will remind Baby Boomers of forgotten music and never-to-be-repeated times. And newer generations may recognize in their own experiences the joys, challenges, and painful cries that Charles faced back in the day." - Cynthia Furlong Reynolds, author, US

"Odd Man Out inspired me with hope. I was greatly encouraged by this book." - Mike Osminski, pastor, Lord of the Harvest Christian Fellowship, Michigan, US

"A fascinating, engaging, and honest story." - Noel Richards, singer/songwriter, UK

"A story full of twists that will make you stop, think, and wonder." - Wes White, pastor, Evergreen Church, Tennessee, US

THE WISDOM TRADITION

THE CHALLENGE OF THE WISDOM TRADITION IS NOT THAT IT IS ANCIENT OR PRIMITIVE; IT IS IN ITS ABILITY TO SPEAK TO OUR WORLD SO POINTEDLY AND WITH SUCH PRACTICAL SOPHISTICATION THAT OUR ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT WHAT IS POSSIBLE APPEAR PALE AND IMPOVERISHED BY COMPARISON. - Chris Bourne
