Book Description
In Ryan’s world, the sun is purple, the air is a green mist, and there are bars on the window. He and his family are prisoners—an exhibit in an alien zoo. But one day, while playing hoops in the outdoor compound, Ryan meets Humphree, an alien figure who comes and goes mysteriously. It’s then that Ryan discovers not only a special disc, but also a tunnel that leads to another world—one where the sun is yellow, the grass is green, and the sky is blue. As Ryan explores, he wonders about his family’s current circumstances. He cannot question his parents because he believes all of their lives are monitored by cameras and listening devices. The alien elders experiment on the humans in order to understand human behaviours, abilities and emotions, while the other aliens view them in captivity. Together, Ryan and Humphree formulate an escape plan for the family. However, not everything is as it seems. Revelation after revelation unravels mysterious secrets about the aliens.

Book Description
The title of the book, Worlds Apart, is an accurate description of both the secular and spiritual worlds in which we live. There exists a great dearth today of true biblical understanding of what it means to be a born-again believer and those who have a mere profession. It is hoped that the reader will discover for him or herself the distinct difference between what it means to be a child of heaven who enjoys all the wonderful benefits of a spiritual life and someone who just exists on a secular plane. It is a sad indictment that the great majority of mankind through the ages have lived and died without a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Truly the words of Jesus impart to us the awful reality that the way is narrow that leads to life and that the way is broad that leads to destruction, and few there be that find the narrow way. The depiction of Christian in John BunyanaEUR(tm)s marvelous book The PilgrimaEUR(tm)s Progress where he is presented as fleeing the city of destruction is so true of the situation today. It is the authoraEUR(tm)s fervent hope that this book will bring joy to believers and an awakening to those who seek to find that narrow way.
