The Domino Effect is an easy-to-read story with twists and turns that will surprise and keep the reader interested.
This is a fictional story, but the message it tells is real. It is all about God’s love and healing power that is expressed in a wild horse. I chose this title because it reflected the interaction of people, situations, and hardships falling like dominos, under the mighty power of God as he answered a little girl’s prayer.

The book will address such matters as:
Does God love every human being?Is prayer relevant for today?Is divine healing possible in a world of science?Does God use animals to bless people?Does everyone have a divine destiny?Can a person’s destiny change?Is it ok to commit suicide?Is God ok with abortion?Does God allow free will?Must a person be born again?And much more.
The storyline is about a thirteen-year-old girl named Janet who lost her father in WWII and struggles with a low self-image. She is walking down a road that will destroy her dreams and crush her inward hopes of ever being a real person.
As the story unfolds, the reader will see Janet become a rebel being, self-absorbed, cynical, and angry at life. However, the reader will also see the hand of God reaching down from heaven to comfort her and give her a sense of acceptance through her Christian grandma and a horse that shows up on her grandmother’s farm in Iowa as fall turns into winter.
