Narrative In Pursuance Of Books The Chair

If someone gave you a chair and said it was made by Jesus Christ, would you believe them? 

When an elderly lady shows up in Corin Roscoe's antiques store and gives him a chair she claims was crafted by Jesus, he scoffs. But when a young boy is miraculously healed two days after sitting in the chair, he stops laughing and starts wondering . . . could this chair heal the person whose life Corin destroyed twelve years ago? 

As word spreads of the boy's healing, a mega-church pastor is determined to manipulate Corin into turning over the chair. And that mysterious woman who gave him the piece flits in and out of his life like a shadow, insinuating it's Corin’s destiny to guard the chair above everything else. But why? 

Desperate, he turns to the one person he can trust, a college history professor who knows more about the legend of the chair than he'll reveal. Corin's life shatters as he searches for the truth about the artifact and the unexplained phenomena surrounding it. What’s more, he's not the only one willing do almost anything to possess the power seemingly connected to the chair.

Acclaim for The Chair:

"James Rubart is one of my new favorite authors. The Chair has the same depth and creativity as Rooms, and it was impossible for me to think of anything else until I finished it. I can't wait for his next book!"

--Terri Blackstock, author of Intervention and Vicious Cycle

"The Chair is a compelling story that will draw the reader's attention immediately and hold onto it until the end. I've enjoyed all of James L. Rubart's books, but this may be my favorite."

--Tracie Peterson, best-selling author of the Striking a Match series

"My kind of story: Thought provoking, filled with the truth of humanity and the compassion of Christ."

--Bill Myers, best-selling author of Eli

"Romance, danger, mystery, betrayal . . . and most of all, a message of healing and restoration. Taking readers far beneath the surface, Rubart masterfully paints a picture of God's depth of love and longing for relationship with even those who are running away from Him as fast as they can. A tale of unimaginable sacrifice and unconditional love that will tug at your heart long after you've completed the last page."

--Kathi Macias, award-winning author of Deliver Me from Evil

"Rubart has a stellar ability to communicate spiritual truth through a highly original, well-told story. Relatable characters and a fast-paced plot provide all of the key elements for a compulsively readable tale."

--Romantic Times (4 1/2 stars out of 5)

"The message in the story is very powerful . . . the ending brought a huge smile to my face."

-- Kissed by Literature

"If you're not carrying all three of (James Rubart's) titles, you don't really have a fiction section."

--Christian Book Shop Talk

Judgment Containing Books The Chair

This book was selected as a book club selection. I was a little nervous about it at first. I wonder if a story about a chair that may have power to heal and was made by Jesus would be too cheesy or too out of the box. However, because of the themes of the novel; relationships, forgiveness, faith, fears it easily becomes relatable. I enjoyed it.

The chair is an exciting thrill ride of adventure, suspense, and healing of relationships. Corin has been carrying years of guilt, while his brother is wrestling with years of resentment. Can they both find peace and resolve their relationship and be healed from the hurt of the past?The chair is part fantasy, but has wonderful spiritual aspects laced throughout the story that grab at your heart and make you think. It's a story of relationships restored, renewed faith, and peace. The characters

Do religious artifacts have supernatural power? how do you really get over guilt and regret? and What lengths would you go to in order to get what you want? Best-selling author James Rubart (www.jimrubart.com) plays with these and other interesting questions in many ways in his new book. An ancient chair, crafted by the most talented tekton craftsman the world has ever known ends up in Corin Roscoes antique shop. The chair apparently has healing powerthough a power that cant be manipulated or

I loved LOVED this book, it stretched my imagination greatly. I have grown up in the church, and have never ever considered the concept or idea that a peice of furniture could be made by Jesus. It stretches me to imagine that a chair could survive for two thousand plus years, and end up in America of all places. However that is what makes the book fantastic. It is the unknown. Could it be possible. Of all the people in America, Corin Roscoe, cannot fathom why this lady, who will not tell him who

James Rubart is carving out his own niche in writing. It isn't pure spec fiction, but has tones of it. It isn't pure mystery or suspense but it will keep you guessing. It isn't pure drama but it is infused with it at every turn. What is it? Fantastic! He started with Rooms and then Book of Days and now his 3rd book in one year is The Chair. Each one is a stand alone with new characters, different situations and insightful theology. The Chair got me from the beginning with the main character,

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! And an extra WOW just so you take me seriously! I was not too sure about this book because I read "Rooms" by the same Author and thought it was just OK. But this one was so much better than just ok, it was amazing! Part Christian psychological drama, part thriller, part suspense, part love story, and ALL on-the-edge-of-your-seat reading! I read this in 2 days and didn't even want to put it down when I had to.Every single time I thought I had things figured out... I would

I was disappointed. It certainly caught my attention and held it but the surprises weren't that surprising. The overall message was excellent and I did care about Corin, Shasta and the rest; possibly too much. Some of it (Tori) felt unnecessary and it was just too predictable.
