First Circle

Retirement from her University faculty position should've brought relaxation; instead, Bernice Langdon deals with an aggressive cancer while harboring a secret that could save her life. That secret may also save others who gather to help the ailing professor embrace her treatment and the resulting journey of physical, emotional, and spiritual growth. First Circle follows six individuals who enter Bernice's life with collective purpose soaring well beyond the reason each first visits her home.
Each member of the First Circle shoulders individual challenges. Collectively, they navigate the bends in life's road as they unknowingly come together to help Bernice through her illness. Little do they know, they have a collective goal beyond Bernice. Someone needs their help even more. From the youthful, fast-paced environment of Ridgewell Associates to the stained-glass grandeur of the Bedrock Hills church sanctuary, First Circle spins from city to suburbs.
From the elegant Dane & Caldwell law offices to the University Medical Center corridors, a hand from afar provides guidance to the group. Their individual faith journeys are tested repeatedly as they seek the purpose behind the unsolicited messages and work to solve the puzzle. Who is the sender? And to what end are they called?
