|  | | Bout Them Angels
In "Angels" a new slant on life is seen through the eyes of several angels as they become involved in the real life events in that very small place called "earth."
Andrew Brown, a very poor and underprivileged black lad struggles with the demands of life and insists on finding something better. His immediate goals are fulfilled after a long journey, by becoming the mature, full-time ordained pastor of a "large all-white church up North." Satisfaction of his deeper goals are harder to recognize and extend to an immeasurable dimension.
Without really being aware of it Andrew assists angels to reach a "worldly wise" old hippie and help him find the "real thing." Involved in this "real thing" business is a beautiful gal - an Earth angel - named Ann. And | |  | | Mississippi Mud

A strained love story is brought to a successful and happy ending through the sincere concerns of some "good lod boys" and their friends who live and play in the small town by the banks of the Mississippi. The hero, one Andrew Brown, grows up, aided by his mentor "Uncle Ben."

As the boat came close to that side of the river, it was in plain sight for Andrew. He could see the captain in the pilothouse. Andrew waved. The captain blew his whistle. That brought back a particular memory for Andrew. He remembered the incident in the cabin with Mama. She said she didn't think the boat whistles would disturb those sleeping on the ridge. Made Andrew wonder. He knew Mama was in the place she would want to be - in t | |  | | Why I Believe In God by John Doe
