Stone of Truth

Donna J. Farris

Nonfiction

When the Simpson family moves to Plymouth, Teacher Trinity finds herself drawn into the center of a raging national storm. “Do the Ten Commandments have a place in public education? Do they represent absolute truth or are they merely the delusions of religious fanatics?” Sinister forces rage as Miss Trin is forced to not only defend absolute truth, but must try and save her job in the process.“But Edith never allowed Gary to have the final word in any argument. She yanked the blankets up over her shoulders and turned on her side away from her husband mumbling, 'Christians! What idiots! Anyone who actually believes some imaginary god tells them how to live has no business teaching future generations of this country. The sooner this myth is expelled from public education, the better. And I’ll work to make that happen whether you like it or not, Gary Simpson! And good night yourself!'"*************Trinity Woodard had taught fifth graders for years in her home town of Plymouth, Wisconsin. The hallmark of her success rested upon her Christian faith and a conviction that God had made every child precious. She believed God had gifted each one with unique skills to accomplish His loving plan for their lives. She was proud to be numbered among a dwindling group of public education instructors who still believed that only by following God’s ways could a child find real joy and fulfillment in life.But when atheist Gary Simpson, a high-powered attorney, and Edith his wife, an ambitious newspaper reporter, move to town and enroll their son, Derrick, into Ms. Woodward’s class, Trin’s life is turned upside down.
