Glennville, GA, November 4, 2015 (Newswire.com) -  Within the pages of J.G. Jakes’s new book, The River Rages, readers will discover the second book of the “River’s Trilogy” – a fictional mix of melodrama, suspense, and historical events. Following on the heels of The River’s Edge, book 1 of the “River’s Trilogy”, the adventures of Luke and Katie McCoy begin when they lose their farm, get uprooted from their home, and move to a new city where things get complicated. Katie is not afraid to face danger and danger seems to finds her. Luke attempts to keep situations in check and keep Katie safe. Their story turns serious when their friend, Hoose, gets railroaded on a murder charge, facing his almost certain execution. Along with friends, they plan and implement the perfect escape.  

“When it comes to trials, we may not always know His reason, but there is always a greater purpose,” states the author. “We may not always know the answers, but we can trust He is in control. In every trial, there is a lesson – to teach us and mold us – so His purpose for our life is fulfilled. Trials teach us to have faith – faith in knowing that through His promises He will sustain us and never leave us. Through our faith, we will have victory in our trials. Through our suffering, we will have glorification.”

"When it comes to trials, we may not always know His reason, but there is always a greater purpose."
