A new edition of the moving drama of life in a rough 1880s mining town, which launched the writing career of early 20th century best-selling author Ralph Connor’s classic Black Rock edited by Michael Phillips.
Jim Craig is a frontier minister to the mining and lumber community of Black Rock—a man with a vision for seeing the Gospel change lives. But the men in town who make their living from whiskey are determined to fight Craig’s attempt at reform.
Meet Leslie Graham, Slavin, Idaho Jack, Sandy, Baptiste, and especially Mrs. Mavor, whose quiet loving influence had a greater impact on the community than many realized.
A self-styled "theological novel," The Cappuccino Club blows the doors off traditional Christian evangelism with a bold new approach to the gospel. Few will read this book with a neutral reaction.

One thing is certain—the message of Jesus in the gospels will not be the same after this astonishing read.

In The Cappuccino Club, Michael Phillips takes his readers on a mind-stretching personal experience that explores the age-old conundrum of hell.
