Nancy Lucas

About

Nancy Lucas grew up in the wild of Bamberg County, South Carolina, near Denmark. Contrary to popular belief, she was not raised by wolves. She was raised by petulant Angus cows and she is still wary of them. Have you ever tried to find black cows in the middle of the night in a strange forest? No, I didn’t think so.

 

Nancy moved to Charleston, South Carolina to attend college. She always suspected there were people like her there having fun, and she was right. Now she hates to leave the peninsula unless it’s by boat. However, she still often visits her parents on the farm.

 

She has been a cartoon contributor for Charleston Mercury since 2006. Scout is her favorite Springer Spaniel and she insists on writing silly stories about his capers.

Description

<p>A Jewish woman’s unconventional quest to find Jesus in modern Israel<br /><br />With candor and an intimate knowledge of the Land and its people, Bobbie Ann Cole takes you on some intriguing time travel, such as to the ceremonial slaughtering of Passover lambs in the nearby temple as Jesus died on the cross.<br />Her moving and compellingly-written personal story of making Aliyah to Israel with her husband, Butch effectively interweaves Israel’s ancient and modern history with biblical references. She reveals the challenges that have faced Jewish believers from Peter and Paul on down to the present day, including her own. The underlying antagonism of her beloved Israel towards Messianic Jews leaves her sneaking around, keeping her true identity secret.<br />A blend of memoir, travelogue, historical document and investigative journalism, Love Triangles<br />is not about theological principals; it's about love.<br />Discover:<br />• How Jesus used Jewish festivals to underscore His message.<br />• The story of Jesus’ Bar Mitzvah.<br />• Why Jewish atheists may move to Israel but not believer Jews.<br />• Why Judaism rejects Jesus as Messiah.</p>

Story Behind The Book

I grew up in Bamberg County, SC where the book is set in the beginning. I also live in Charleston, SC now, but lived in Richmond, VA for 5 years in the late 1990s. There really were young people who filed their teeth to look like vampire fangs and avoided all sunlight!

She's afflicted with sudden red blood cell loss and becomes anemic overnight. After several years of hospital visits for refills on hemoglobin, she decides to try an animal source for blood. It works so well, she finds herself offing a bully during a school bus wreck while she’s in middle school, the accident conveniently camouflaging his gruesome murder. I won’t say any more, but you can only imagine what happens when she goes to college and starts hanging out with vampire posers!</div> </div> </div> </div>
