becoming an ordained minister. For the next 43 years, he
served in eight pastoral appointments in the Methodist
Church in California. Retiring in 1997, he continued
writing as a poet (Listening Christmas, 2001, and

A SHORT SYNOPSIS OF
OMNESIA!
A Novel of Christian
Possibilities
It is true that on that bright April
morning John awoke to temporary amnesia, finding himself
in unfamiliar surroundings and unable to remember who he
was or how he had gotten there. This was quickly replaced
by the terrifying experience of what he would call “Omnesia,”
for with the return of his memories he found he shared
them with no one else in the world, that everyone had
forgotten him and even his remembered closest friends
found in him an unrecognized stranger. How had this unique
disaster happened, and what could he do to adapt himself
to it? His wife had completely vanished from where she
should have been and she also was unremembered there. If
she could be found, would she still be married to him?
Would she even know him? His only and chosen vocation not
only required extensive academic preparation but also the
endorsing recognition of ordaining bodies, and officially
he did not exist and had no qualifications. Could a man
with no past expect to achieve a desirable future? These
questions must necessarily be answered, and his only
resources were his memories and his faith. This is the
account of the answers he found and the surprising
discoveries he makes upon the way.
What kind of a book is this? Well, it
might be a mystery if the cosmos can be the suspect; or it
could be seen as science fiction, if the science involved
is theology, the study of God. Could it happen? The
British Astronomer Royal seems to think so! |
