I’ve always lost myself in the creative arts when faced with challenges in life — whether it was diving into theatre as a young boy or finding a home in the voice over world because casting director didn’t know what to do with my “look”…the arts have been there to give me a space to tinker. When Squirm packed his bags for the Rainbow Bridge, that loss was certainly a challenge with a capital “C”. And unfortunately, any of us that have pets will face that music at one point or another. Well, how do you process that hit to the heart? How about a children’s book where Squirm is the star?

Silence was never empty. When people in a remote town begin hearing voices answering them—coming from the ground, the walls, the dead—it starts quietly. A name whispered back. A question finished for you. A familiar voice used perfectly. Then the answers demand more. The thing beneath the town cannot speak on its own. It can only respond. And every response costs flesh, breath, and voice. Throats are opened. Mouths move without sound. The earth itself begins to speak through whoever is careless enough to answer. As panic spreads, silence becomes survival. Words become weapons.

The world ended in fire. What remained was faith. In the growing settlement of New Hope, survival is no longer the only struggle. Food is scarce. Trust is fragile. And beneath the fragile peace of the community, something dangerous is beginning to take shape. Roger Henderson believes the people of New Hope must become more than survivors. He calls the settlement into a Year of Discipleship—a commitment to live the teachings of Jesus not just in word, but in action. But not everyone believes faith alone will keep them alive.

Some words are born in laboratories and die in footnotes. A rare few escape, slip into ordinary speech, and take on a life their makers never intended. “Passionarity” is one of these escapees—a strange, electric word coined by the Russian historian Lev Gumilev to explain why peoples suddenly blaze into history, conquer, build, overreach, and burn out. He meant it as science. It became something stranger: a myth, a mirror, a political slogan, and a way of feeling time. This book tells the biography of that idea.
