F. Daniel McClure's Newly Released "Toby and the Man: A Young Boy's Personal Relationship with Jesus, the Christ" is an Engaging Spiritual Coming-Of-Age Novel

MEADVILLE, Pa., Nov. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Toby and the Man: A Young Boy's Personal Relationship with Jesus, the Christ": an inspired novel about spiritual growth. "Toby and the Man" is the creation of published author F. Daniel McClure, PhD, a practicing child psychologist with over thirty-five years of experience working with children and youth.

McClure writes, "Toby's having a bad day. Since his dad died in an auto accident, it seems that he's having more bad days than good. This particular day has been the worst. His mom has to work on Sundays, so Toby walks to Sunday School and church by himself. And today it's raining. And he's late. And his 'good shoes' hurt his feet. Finally, in his rush to get there on time, he forgets his umbrella. His already foul little mood gets worse and worse as he gets into trouble in Sunday School and has to sit in the hall. The Sunday School lesson is about having a personal relationship with Jesus, a subject which has always confused and frustrated Toby. He has no idea what this really means, and at this point he's not even so sure he would want such a relationship.

Then comes the icing on the cake, as Toby realizes that in his haste this morning he also forgot his work clothes, the clothes he needs for his regular Sunday afternoon mission work. Overcome by frustration, he picks up a rock and just blindly gives it a fling. Well, you guessed it. Crash! Right through the picture window of the meanest old woman on the block! That's it. Toby's had enough. He's going home. With his head down against the driving rain he's running full-steam across the church playground when Wham!, he runs right into the metal post that holds the basketball net.
He comes to in a strange desert land. Instead of his Sunday outfit he finds himself wearing some sort of tunic."

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Dr. F. Daniel McClure's new book is a moving tale inspired by the author's grandson, Warner.

As Toby learns to come to terms with his dad's death and grows closer with his heavenly father, he becomes the perfect example of the Bible verse "Blessed are the ones who grieve."
