Has the sacred space of Grace Devine Church become a battlefield—not of fists, but of faith? Standing beneath the soft glow of stained-glass windows, Zeke Prophet, a young pastor burdened by grief, legacy, and a stuttering voice that has long betrayed him, finds himself at the mercy of Bishop Gallium. With Aurora, the bishop’s daughter by his side, torn between love and loyalty, Zeke faces the crushing weight of public rejection and spiritual humiliation. The bishop, towering in his robes and righteous authority, condemns Zeke’s leadership, mocks his calling, and threatens to strip away both his ministry and his bride. The church may be bathed in light, but Zeke is drowning in shame, in loneliness, and in the whispers of the enemy convincing him he’s unworthy. Yet even in this lowest moment, a deeper conflict brews: not just between men, but between Heaven’s promise and Hell’s deception. This chapter marks the soul-shaking collision of doubt and destiny, setting the stage for either surrender ... or a miraculous rise.
