Synopsis

Scientific theories are never "true or "false"; they are "good" or "bad" in various degrees, and the criterion is one of usefulness—predictability and manipulation to (seeming) advantage. Theories are often discarded, simply because evidence may be insufficient for one, where it seems to sustain another—or where another can account for observed phenomena more simply.

    Immerse yourself in the Cinematic Sound Effects Edition! This author’s personal narration is vividly enhanced with rich ambient sounds and a subtle musical score. 
    When Chris - a troubled young comic - meets a beautiful, wildly unpredictable woman, their story spins into a dark comedy with deep spiritual questions that offer the unexpected hope of redemption. 
    This short-form audiobook delivers a cinematic punch! 
    Chris is a young alcoholic who wants nothing to do with his family’s bizarre mortuary business. He dreams of being a comedian, of making people laugh — but the economy is brutal, his drug habit is getting worse and his life is unraveling fast. 
    Then there’s Zoie. She’s gorgeous, confident, completely unpredictable and she’s got plans of her own. What begins as an offbeat romance turns into a chaotic ride through grief, love, repentance, and faith. 
    Zoie: “I Don’t Think Jesus Did It This Way” is a dark, fast-moving romantic comedy with a very strange spiritual twist. 
    The author, Jack Webb, was born in South Carolina and raised mostly on U.S. Air Force bases in Europe and the southwestern U.S. After college, he worked in the motion picture industry and became a director of photography. While in film production, he honed his addictions to a fine edge. Now many years sober, he writes stories inspired by actual experiences, tales he’s heard, and his own vivid imagination. This is his first novella.
