The Messiah Project [EPUB ebook] 

Springboarding from an almost off-the-wall comment, Jack Spencer is catapulted into a world of deception, intrigue, and danger. Doc Lucas, his best friend, suddenly passes away and leaves Jack to inherit his church, home, and incomplete research into what he came to know as the Messiah Project. As Jack followed Doc’s lead, he discovers facts that were being hidden from the eyes of the world. The deeper he dug into the project, the more dangerous the game became. Jack, a pastor, was formerly a green beret who had also worked for the government on projects so sensitive that the records of his service and training were buried so deeply in the archives that nobody could find them. This was a work that he was uniquely qualified to handle. He just hoped that God would keep him alive long enough to finish the work.
