In the heart of Ironridge, a city caught between the decay of its industrial past and the stark divide of its economic reality, sixteen-year-old Eddie "Edge" McGowan is fighting for a way out. Growing up on the wrong side of Main Street, where opportunities are scarce and hope is even harder to come by, Edge knows the odds are stacked against him. But he refuses to let his circumstances define his future. As tensions rise between the haves and the have-nots, Edge and his close-knit group of friends find themselves at the center of a brewing storm. Navigating the gritty streets of Ironridge, they must confront the harsh realities of their world—substance abuse, violence, and the looming specter of a life of poverty. When a clash with a group of privileged suburban teens escalates into a full-blown conflict, Edge is forced to make choices that will shape the course of his life forever. "Shadows of Main Street" is a powerful coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of the 1980s Midwest, exploring themes of loyalty, identity, and the pursuit of a better life. With vivid characters and a compelling narrative, Edward D. Andrews captures the struggles of youth in a divided society, where the line between survival and surrender is as thin as the street that divides a city. Will Edge break free from the shadows of his upbringing, or will he be consumed by the very forces he's fighting against? Discover the gripping tale of a young man determined to define his own destiny, no matter the cost. Perfect for readers who enjoy: Gritty, realistic fiction Coming-of-age stories Socially relevant themes Complex character-driven narratives

This devotional book follows the author's own faith journey back to God. Significant life events can shake our world and distort our faith. Following life's tragedies, a common reaction is to become angry with God or to reject Him altogether. Examples of tragedies or traumas include life-changing events such as physical or sexual assault, destruction of one's home, the tragic death of a loved one, diagnoses of terminal diseases, divorce, miscarriages, or being a victim of a crime. Tragedies or traumas can cause feelings of anxiety, depression, shame, and guilt. After major tragedies, an individual may be locked in an unhealthy pattern of behavior due to depression and anger. Peacefulness is not within the heart of a person having difficulty with the aftermath of a tragedy. Getting past the event may take years and be fraught with sadness. In this devotional book, the reader will be able to assess their own progress along the pathway back to God. Explanations of the relationship of anxiety, depression, shame, and guilt are provided. Although there are many self-help therapeutic books and resources, this devotional book presents suggestions for coping with tragedies and regaining faith. Along each step of the journey, meaningful Scriptures are provided to help the reader connect back to their faith and to become closer to God.
