On January 1, 2014, as they ran their 366th marathon, they set a new World Record for the most consecutive marathons, as the oldest and only couple to run around Australia, fuelled entirely on fruit and vegetables and wearing barefoot shoes. Having previously cured herself of cancer, Janette Murray-Wakelin is living proof that anything can be achieved when living a conscious lifestyle."--

"Time Is Running Out" is a compelling action-filled drama in a time period that is barely beyond the horizon and just prior to Christ's return. Descend into the darkness of the oppressive "One World Order," where deception and betrayal reign and physical and spiritual death engulf humankind. Time is Running Out paints a sobering picture of the battle between God's witnesses and Satan's army against the backdrop of a much anticipated rapture. Finally, this novel is a magnificent weave of story and scripture that trumpets great truths and offers up a lesson that is life-changing and life-giving.
