The Final Summit
By Andy Andrews
Published by Thomas Nelson

In The Final Summit, 74-year-old David Ponder contemplates his life, devoid of pleasure after the passing of his beloved wife. As visions of his past plague him, he receives a visit from an old acquaintance… the Archangel Gabriel.

Swept up to a summit assembly made up of the greatest leaders throughout the ages, Ponder is selected to lead this event as the only person of their kind who is living at the current time. Charged with a grave task, they must attempt to save humanity by answering a single question: “What does humanity need to do, individually and collectively, to restore itself to the pathway toward successful civilization?”

To answer this question, Ponder is allowed five advisers from the assembly, which includes the likes of Winston Churchill, Joan of Arc, Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Martin Luther King Jr., Anne Frank and King David. Five advisers, and five chances to answer the question correctly, before time runs out forever.

A brilliantly creative story, The Final Summit is filled with the inspiration and factual historical reference Andrews has come to be known for. A fast paced and interesting read, with a thought-provoking answer.

And now my two cents, seek Christ.
