“Welcome! I’m Stone Carter, a storyteller dedicated to sharing powerful tales of faith, resilience, and transformation. My debut novel, How Promise Falls, is set to release on December 15th. Through my work, I aim to explore how God uses unlikely people in extraordinary circumstances, inviting us all to embrace faith, courage, and the unbreakable power of redemption.”
How Promise Falls follows the turbulent journey of Bobby Ridell, a young man navigating life in the gritty streets of Hoboken, New Jersey. With basketball as his outlet and ambition, he dreams of escaping his crime ridden neighborhood. But as he pursues success, Bobby wrestles with deceit, betrayal, and the everpresent temptations that threaten to lead him astray.
After finding himself behind bars, Bobby encounters faith in the most unlikely place: within the walls of his prison cell. This is a story of struggle, faith, and the search for truth—a reminder that the hardest battles are often fought within. How Promise Falls is more than just a story of hardship; it’s a testament to the redemptive love that transforms lives.
Raised in the vibrant Catholic communities of Philadelphia and Greensboro, my early life was steeped in religious tradition, though I never fully understood the depths of a personal relationship with Christ. My journey took a profound turn during a time of despair, when my sister shared the gospel with me. This life changing moment led me to accept Jesus’ grace and embark on a path of transformation.
Today, I write Christian fiction that reflects this journey, hoping to inspire others to find purpose through their struggles, discover hope amidst despair, and embrace the life changing power of faith. My stories are grounded in the belief that God works through each of us, even in our darkest moments, to bring us closer to Him.
My writing is inspired by my own journey of faith, as well as the stories of countless others who have found redemption, hope, and strength through Christ. Each novel I create is an invitation to explore the profound ways in which God works through our lives, especially in moments of pain and uncertainty. Through characters like Bobby Ridell, I strive to highlight the challenges we all face—and the power of God’s love to lead us through them.
How Promise Falls is only the beginning. I’m committed to writing stories that inspire, challenge, and uplift. Keep an eye out for future books that continue exploring the theme of redemption and the incredible ways God uses ordinary people to reveal His extraordinary love.
