What People Say "Life's Choices is an easy read and an eye opener to the citizen who has not yet crossed paths with the pro-life movement. I recommend this novel if you are looking for a real life view of choices we face in today's culture." --Mary Rodriquez, R.N., Program Administrator, Birthline/Lifeline Pregnancy Care Centers Delray Beach, Florida "Life's Choices is a book which is both entertaining and enlightening. Paul Turk provides great insight into often misunderstood pro-life help. He gives detailed descriptions of what goes on at Sidewalk Prayer outside of abortion mills, the purpose of Crisis Pregnancy Centers and how they can help, and the in's and out's of adoption. Mr. Turk uses his fictional novel to promote a culture of Life. I highly recommend this book." Yoli Cory, Hiawassee, Georgia "Paul Turk's latest novel, Life's Choices, is a gripping, thought-provoking story that you will not want to put down until the conclusion. It is a riveting narrative, with a likeable circle of friends, who exhibit godly character and a real compassion for others. The book will make you wish you had friends such as these, even though many led criminal lives before having life-changing experiences. It makes you want to live in Paul Turk's world, where life is all about how you can help others and bring joy to their lives. Life's Choices is a book about second chances and are presented from a Christian perspective. His legal knowledge enriches the story, while bringing courtroom scenes to life. Paul Turk's fiction inspires, draws you closer to God, makes you feel cleansed inside and fills you with hope." Kathy Johnson, Esq. Attorney and Author of Starlette Universe: Eva from E-ville, Delray Beach, Florida "I heartily recommend Life's Choices for any reader who is looking for a story filled with legal suspense and a pro-faith, pro-life message. Paul Turk manages to weave together a tale of how our life choices can impact our families, our future and even our freedom. With hard-hitting courtroom scenes and a story that is warm, encouraging and true-to-life, he exposes the weighty issues at play, but demonstrates the mercy and grace of God at work. Life's Choices is a wonderful read for the community of faith, but also for anyone who is confronted with this issue. It will challenge your thinking, but mostly, it demonstrates that there is always hope." A. Wayne Gill, Esq., Attorney, minister and author of The Runner, Lake Worth, Florida

This is Paul's fourth book with some of the same characters. He makes them seem real. His books are exciting and reads like a mystery. They are difficult to put down. I recommend that you read all four books.

This is a critical book in these times of the culture of "death" When a whale is more important than an unborn baby child. The author , Paul Turk, knows life as a former trial lawyer. In addition to his legal credentials he is a personal friend who has served with me in a prison ministry. Buy this book as a Christmas gift and buy many.

Life's Choices by Paul Turk is a novel which our society needs.The book is a wonderful testimony to God's ability and willingness to assist all of us in our battles against darkness and discouragement when troubles come our way. The characters are real life and the dialogue makes you feel as though you were actually having a conversation with family or friends. The pro-life aspect, as well as the other intertwined issues, are inspirational. I highly recommend this book as a must read.

Steve Walsh comments: Paul Turk is both a caring Christian man and a phenomenal fiction writer. His three books all have had a positive uplifting message in them. I have enjoyed all three. I happen to know Paul personally by serving on several church retreats with him.Paul’s latest book, entitled Life’s Choices, has three exciting adventures going on throughout the book at the same time. Paul will always end one adventure at an exciting point before he moves to the next adventure. I could not wait to see what would happen in the next chapter. I literally could not put his book down. I am looking forward to purchasing more Christian fiction books by Paul Turk

I love the way Paul Turk writes his new book Life’s Choices; by weaving two beautiful faith based stories into one magnificent book.One of the characters is a man named Carlos Delgado who was fighting for his life in a court room for a crime he said he did not commit. But because of a poor choice to get revenge he had to go through a very difficult time trying to prove he was not guilty.The second story involves an innocent 18 year old girl who discovers she was pregnant and had to make one of the most important decisions of her young life, to choose life or death for her unborn baby.This book had me unable to put it down until I finished it. Excellent read with inspiring stories showing Gods hand at work in the lives of people on their journeys through life.Dennis Marquez

What do an ex-con, a prison ministry group, two sisters walking into an abortion clinic, and a sidewalk counselor all have in common? Life’s Choices. In his book, Paul Turk weaves together the stories of ex-con Carlos Delgado and a pregnant teen named Lourdes through shared characters involved in both of their lives. Put a spiteful, sucker-punching ex-con in a courtroom with a former inmate he despises; add rivaling attorneys, one driven by political aspirations; then switch to scenes of self-discovery and scenes that pit self concern against selfless love, and you come up with Life’s Choices, a book you will read, remember, and recommend to your friends.

Paul has become a very good story teller. The comparisons of the story of DEATH between prison life and trying to find answers to very tough questions there and that of young women who may or may not be considering having an abortion are so amazing. What I find is people usually do not have enough of the correct information so they can make the right choice. Paul brings these so close to us that it hits the nail on the head. You will want to read all of his books to see how great they are. Enjoy the book and/or books!!
