Book Review by "The Light of the Lowcountry
Magazine,", Bamberg, SC
Sharon
Oliver's book "Keep Your Enemies Closer" , although
labeled as Christian Fiction, is wonderfully
believable as it weaves you into the story
of "Charlotte," a Christian woman visiting her
grandmother "down south". With Sharon's Oliver's
brilliant writing style, you will find yourself easily
captivated by the endearing characters lives, with
all of their colorful and complicated
"quirks." Mrs. Oliver weaves a storyline
so suspenseful that you will actually catch yourself
holding your breath, waiting for the turning of the next
page. You will also find yourself laughing out loud
at the delightful character of "Ms. Sista!"
The main character,
"Charlotte" gives us all a shining example of
faith in action. Charlotte handles each
complication that comes her way, by seeking God first,
and so her own faith shines as a beacon to her
friends, as well as family.
"The Light of the
Lowcountry Magazine" has picked Sharon Oliver's book, "Keep Your Enemies Closer" as No. 1
on our list of Recommended
Christian Books. We encourage each of our
readers to order this wonderful book. You will be very
blessed by doing so.

OUR MISSION
STATEMENT:
Everyday it is becoming more and
more evident that the evils of the world are being promoted by the
mass media, in radio, tv, satelllite, and in magazines, books, and
many other publications. The Bible predicted that this would
happen in
the last days before Jesus Christ returns to
earth.
Our Oline Christian magazine
is proud to be a part of GOD'S MEDIA ARMY, who will help to spread
the gospel of Jesus Christ through the printed word. Our base
of operations is in the SC Lowcountry, Bamberg, SC, but we
know that this magazine will be a shining light, not just to the
S.C. Lowcountry, but to all of SC and far beyond.
Through us the LIGHT of Jesus Christ will be shed abroad in the
hearts of all of our readers across the US and in other
countries. Let us never forget that Jesus is the TRUE LIGHT of
the world, so don't be afraid to let your light shine!
John 8:12: "I am the
light of the world; he that followeth me...shall
have the light of life."
Matthew 5:16: "In
the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see
your good deeds and praise your Father in
heaven."
