There has always been a special weight to ministry. As pastors come to lead their churches, they recognize very quickly the task they have been called to comes with very special expectations. And with each passing year, it feels like we now live in a time when pastors and ministry leaders can no longer live up to those expectations. Burnout is rampant. Pastors are stepping down in order to protect the well-being of themselves and their families. Moral failings seem to bring down leaders we once viewed as giants.

During that time, 50 people have been killed with long-range, precisely-placed shots taken from the assassin’s .50 caliber rifle.

They send him to Paris as a contract crew member on a Dassault Falcon 7X, and Pearce comes face to face with the deadly assassin in a guise he never sees coming.

John the Booker, Librast of Northem, writes his eyewitness account of how the execrated thing re-emerged and spilled eldritch magic over a civilization with only swords and muscle to fight it.
