When those called to lead fall, the wounds run deep. A Crack in the Pulpit is a story for anyone who’s ever been disillusioned by the failure of a spiritual leader or left holding the pieces of a shattered trust. Set in the heart of a church facing the unimaginable, this emotionally raw and redemptive novel explores the hidden struggles beneath the surface of ministry—and the grace that meets us in our deepest pain. It’s also a story for pastors, elders, and church leaders who find themselves carrying the heavy burden of leading well when the one who should have led them has fallen. For the betrayed, the questioning, and the weary, this is a journey of honesty, healing, and the quiet hope that God is still at work—even when everything seems broken.
