Atlanta
The challenges facing America's inner-city youth has been well-documented in the news media. Images of young African-American men in handcuffs often filter through evening newscasts on a daily basis. In his debut novel, "EGO; Easing God Out; No, Keep Him In," author Ormond Curl interjects a countering image; one of successful young men and women undergoing a powerful transformation of financial empowerment. "EGO" is a must-read for anyone concerned with the state of the African-American community and America's inner-city neighborhoods.
"EGO" is a fictional thriller that follows Bill Sheppard, a business owner of a human resource consulting firm that has a supernatural life-altering experience with God, coupled with a miracle-filled Christian crusade trip to Africa. Once he returned, he has a God-given purpose to impact African American high school students, shifting their paradigm from apathy to a confidence originating from personal business ownership.
This highly immersive book grants readers a different view of inner city teenagers who have a willingness to roll up their mental sleeves and become a part of the worldwide EGO movement. "EGO" is a multi-faceted read that shows readers that everyone deserves a chance to succeed in life.
