The humans and the spiritual realm are connected since birth, and though we may not be able to see it, this connection exists until our death when we are transferred back into the spirit realm. It is sacred and full of servants of God as well. But, no one can deny the existence of evil that coexists with them. Never dying, and always trying to drag thefaithful servants of God to the bad side. And we have learned that the consequences of it are not only on our soul, but they are also physical.God has always provided people with different means to protect themselves, warn them against the impending evil, and bring them to the safe side.

The Gulag and the Dell
In this stirring sequel to "Through Fear and Trembling," Athena Arnold becomes the new President of the United States in the wake of a hotly disputed election. Veiled in her rhetoric, but undeniable by her actions is a determination to stamp out all vestiges of biblical Christian faith in America, which she regards as toxic to society. Her aim instead is to force America into the global socialist New World Order. William Walter Cunningham, her head of the Bureau of Government Affairs in New Washington State, dispatches the young, arrogant Ahmad Salazar to bring to heel the citizens of Green Valley, a small, God-fearing, mid-western community. Salazar ruthlessly forces his "control and compliance" policy on its citizens. Local Christian pastors Brandon Mills of the Green Valley Community Church and Roland Spafford of the Harvest Temple push back, setting up a clash between two diametrically opposed and irreconcilable worldviews. Pastor Brandon's rebellious teenage daughter Patricia finds herself pregnant out of wedlock, with the local family planning clinic determined to force her into an unwanted abortion. The resulting chain of events causes some believers to flee to the Dell, a hidden refuge deep in a dense forest northwest of Green Valley. Pastor Brandon is forcibly separated from his ailing wife Lisa and sent to the "Rough Acres Reeducation and Rehabilitation Camp," a gulag in North Dakota that specializes in forcing hard cases into conformity with the edicts of the New World Order. Courage, cowardice, treachery, heartbreak, healing, romance, and the sovereign hand of God; "The Gulag and the Dell" is a powerful story of redemption and of the ultimate victory of God and His people over the forces of evil.

Scott's characters adequately convert others through the witnessing of God's Word and good old-fashioned Southern hospitality that transcends race and religion.
