A deep dive into a preacher's haunted past.
Even men of God have their demons.
Despite traveling the globe preaching and speaking to hundreds of thousands of followers, noted evangelist Ezekiel Clemens is a haunted man. From faking miracles to drunken nights, this man of God lives a life unfitting to his stature.
At his side is Gerald, a friend and accomplice in hiding Ezekiel's sinful secrets despite his convictions.
On the day of one of their televised meetings, faces from their previous lives return and send the two headfirst into confronting the pain they own and the pain they've caused. The past and present collide as Ezekiel's demons he tried to run from return, forcing him -- and Gerald -- to acknowledge the things they fear the most.
With insight and empathy, N.T. McQueen's provocative novel, Between Lions and Lambs, examines the nature of hypocrisy, the power of redemption, and the faithfulness of grace until its shocking conclusion.
