Nearing the end of his storied reign, a king longs to leave a lasting legacy for future generations. He considers soaring monuments, precious coins bearing his likeness, larger-than-life statues. But then the king's most trusted advisor steps forth with a remarkable idea to discover the wisdom of the ages, the greatest secret of the known world to benefit all people. So the king invites citizens from all walks of life and all corners of the realm to share with him the best of their life lessons.

In The Encounter, book six of Bill Myers’ Forbidden Doors series, Becka Williams’ friend Krissi begins dabbling with automatic handwriting and is convinced a powerful and benevolent being is channeling a message through her. It’s up to Becka to show her the truth.

Just as our hapless hero finally gets used to Jesus’s many surprise visits, the stakes are raised even higher when his ex begs to move into his house with her latest boyfriend. Then, of course, there are the other women in his life—an uber-religious Conservative and a jaded ex-Christian. All this as, barely knowing the Bible himself, he is roped into teaching a Bible study to rival gang members at the local prison. And yet, somehow, amidst the drama, comedy and surprising turn of events, he stumbles into the maturity God has always hoped for him.

With the life of his niece's newborn baby hanging in the balance, our hero continues his off-the-record conversations with Yeshua—sometimes visiting him in Bible times, sometimes amidst the baffling events of his own world. Join Will Thomas as he continues stumbling his way toward holiness and, through no fault of his own, an ever-deepening friendship with God.

Finally equipped for battle, our reluctant hero begins the fight … while learning where the real battlefield lies … who his real enemies are … when to strike with God’s truth or reach out with His grace … and when to quietly pray or boldly take a stand regardless the cost. Now that Will has received the tools of spiritual warfare, he must learn how to use them.

After his death, including a tour of heaven, Will realizes Earth’s great need and agrees to return to help. With Jesus’ instruction and their occasional visits to Old Testament times and prophets, our hero learns through failure and mishaps (always with a touch of Myers’s humor), how to prepare for the battles God has called him to fight.
