H. A. Ayers Continues Corporate Thriller Series with ‘Evan’s Path,’ Published by Christian Faith Publishing
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
H. A. Ayers has released "Evan’s Path," a sequel that picks up months after CEO Evan Hoffmeyer’s first encounter with a shadowy organization known as The Order, published through Christian Faith Publishing.
The novel follows Hoffmeyer in the aftermath of merging two companies, the Carson Corporation and ListCorp, a success that draws unwanted attention from Vice President Perry Dodson, who has been secretly monitoring him. According to the book’s synopsis, that surveillance leads Dodson toward an unexpected decision. Meanwhile, President Addison is racing to prepare a network of bunkers against a possible national collapse while trying to break The Order’s grip on the U.S. government, and is pressing Hoffmeyer for access to the most critical of those sites, known as Site C.
A second storyline follows Cale Liston in a pursuit of State Department officer Jack Welston across Europe, a chase the synopsis describes as yielding Liston an unlikely ally. Both threads converge, as the publisher notes, back on Hoffmeyer and the people around him, as he faces the question of whether his choices will lead to his downfall or his redemption.
Ayers has characterized the work as exploring how everyday individuals navigate choices that ripple across broader contexts. "Evan’s journey is ultimately about wrestling with conscience, seeking redemption, and discovering whether faith can illuminate the darkest paths," Ayers said, according to the announcement. The author has said the novel draws on a background balancing small-town values with the realities of urban life, themes Ayers has worked into fiction centered on trust, hope, and faith under pressure.
"Evan’s Path" is available through bookstores and major retailers, including Amazon, Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
Corporate-thriller plots wrapped around questions of faith and conscience are a smaller niche in Christian fiction, and Studio CarryOnHarry will be curious whether Ayers’ blend of political intrigue and spiritual reckoning finds the same readership as more traditional entries in the genre.

Economist Who Converted to Christianity at 84 Publishes Book Applying Analytical Rigor to Faith
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
An economics professor who taught for thirty-three years and experienced a conversion to Christianity at 84 has released his new work, "Christianity Today," via Christian Faith Publishing.
According to the announcement, the book applies the kind of analytical framework Orr used in his academic career to questions of modern faith, examining Christianity’s strengths and what the announcement describes as its shortcomings, while also addressing Judaism and Islam for comparative context. The announcement states Orr maintains an assessment of Jesus Christ consistent with biblical teaching throughout.
Orr holds bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees in economics from the University of Toronto and the University of Wisconsin. Born in Canada, he taught at three universities over his career: two years in Canada, five in Florida, and twenty-six in California, according to the announcement. His conversion to Christianity came late in life, at 84, a turning point the announcement says redirected his focus toward writing about faith.
The book’s major themes, per the announcement, include fear, doubt, sexuality, discrimination, political engagement, challenges facing church institutions, and eschatology. The publisher describes Orr’s approach as applying a form of cost-benefit analysis to the question of Christian commitment itself, covering what the announcement calls candid discussion of institutional failures within churches alongside doctrinal questions.
"After spending my entire career analyzing economic systems," Orr said in the announcement, "I recognized that faith itself deserves the same rigorous, honest scrutiny. This book represents my attempt to examine Christianity with both intellectual integrity and genuine reverence for its transformative power."
"Christianity Today" is available through bookstores, the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry finds the more interesting story here less the book itself than the author: a career spent in economics departments, followed by a conversion in his mid-80s that produced a full-length theological work. That’s an unusual arc worth noting on its own terms.

Dan Klender, who served 22 years as a U.S. Navy chaplain, has published a new book examining the military’s handling of religious accommodation requests during the Department of Defense’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. The book, "The Death of Courage: The Betrayal of the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor During the COVID-19 Scandal," was released through Christian Faith Publishing.
Klender’s military service began shortly after the September 11 attacks, following earlier work pastoring churches in New Mexico and Washington state. He holds a Doctor of Ministry and a Master of Exegetical Theology, with degrees from Phoenix Seminary and Western Seminary, according to the announcement.
The work examines the cases of military personnel separated from service following the Department of Defense’s immunization requirement., which has since been rescinded. According to the announcement, Klender argues that religious accommodation requests from these service members were not properly considered, and he frames the discharges as a violation of First Amendment protections. The publisher describes the book as identifying structural failures in military leadership during that period and proposing changes aimed at institutional accountability.
"I witnessed leaders abandon the principles our warriors had sworn to defend," Klender said in the announcement. "This book documents that betrayal with the precision it demands, while offering a roadmap toward restoration and renewed commitment to constitutional fidelity."
This is not Klender’s first book. He has previously written "Living with the End in View," published through Covenant Books, which centered on themes of faith and mortality.
"The Death of Courage" is available through major booksellers and online retailers including Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Google Play, and the Apple iTunes Store.
The military’s vaccine mandate and the discharges that followed remain a contested chapter in recent defense policy, and Studio CarryOnHarry expects accounts like Klender’s to keep surfacing as veterans and former officers weigh in on how those decisions were made and who bore the consequences.
