The Other Christmas Story

The Other Christmas Story - Scott Hogenson 

• I have an idea for a political thriller certain to become a best seller and possibly a hit movie. Here’s a quick sketch:

"A politician exploits his family connections to become head of state, but his job approval numbers are deeply underwater. 

To maintain power, he engages in global intrigue with iconic world leaders, later choosing the wrong side in a war and descending into the madness of paranoia.
As new threats to his administration emerge, he seeks to collude with foreign emissaries to destroy this threat, forcing his usurper to flee across international borders. 

His lunacy culminates in the murder of untold numbers of his own citizens. 

Along the way, he is embroiled in a series of failed marriages, the murder of two sons, and ultimately, an agonizing death."

The Advent season and the Christmas story bring joy and hope as Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus. But the aforementioned sketch describes the political environment into which He was born. 

It is the other Christmas story...
