Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome along on this wonderful and motivating tale.
A retired soldier who lost his faith in the Vietnam War and found it again in the heartfelt words of a stranger shares the message of salvation with J.C., a nine-year-old boy struggling to believe in the miracles he hears about in the Bible.
Johnny Cassidy, filled with doubts, is J.C. His name unknowingly links him to a greater power, the source of humanity's redemption.
The tale of Uncle Hula Hoop and J.C. will stay with you long after you turn the final page.
Salvation is for everyone. It's as simple as believing and giving God entrance into our lives.
The story of Uncle Hula Hoop and J.C. is too important to ignore, leave on a shelf, or put off until later.
Childhood is when the strongest connection to Jesus is formed. Yet, a study by the Barna Group in 2018 suggests that 93 percent of practicing Christians don't feel comfortable with having a conversation about God with their own grandchildren.
The children of America are the key to this country maintaining its faith in Christ and God.
In America, eighty percent of the population does not attend church. That leaves millions of children who are not churched and do not know about the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.This book can be your conversation starter and your opening into that discussion we often find so difficult to initiate.
Uncle Hula Hoop and J.C. is a story of witnessing about Jesus Christ and leading a boy filled with doubts to become a believer in Jesus.
Our country needs Christian mentors like Uncle Hula Hoop. It is hoped that this book will touch the lives of unbelievers, both children and adults.

Praise for Uncle Hula Hoop and J.C.
Uncle Hula Hoop and J.C. by Sandy Jackson is a great book that is highly recommended. Sharing the message of Jesus Christ and salvation can be a bit awkward. It seems sometimes difficult to explain. Sandy brilliantly and beautifully shares the message in such a way that it makes it understandable, joyful, and very engaging to read. I couldn't put this story down until I had read every word written. Thank you, Sandy, for writing another great book that we may all utilize and share with others.
