'Conversion: A Spiritual Novel About The Sacred & The Profane': a chilling and captivating tale of spiritual emergence from a dark shadow. 'Conversion: A Spiritual Novel About The Sacred & The Profane' is the creation of published author, Michael Slome, MD. In 1968, while in college, Mike Slome left his Christian faith to become an agnostic. In 1974, he entered his psychiatric residency, after completing medical school in upstate New York. In 1992, he returned to his Christian roots. Emily, a holy and devout Christian, who was one of Dr. Slome's patients, had a profound religious impact on him. Emily struggled with severe emotional instability, secondary to a traumatic brain injury. She never lost her faith or her daily focus on Jesus. Since that time, Dr. Slome has tried his best to live a Christ-centered life. Being human, he has at times slipped back into a self-centered life, where pride, jealousy, and selfishness resurfaced. He remains ever hopeful that no matter what happens in his life, he will pursue his goal to live a Christ-centered life.

In 1968 Promises, Promises, based on 1960's hit film The Apartment, opened on Broadway to great critical and popular acclaim. It was the first collaboration between Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and the resultant score was - and still is - regarded as one of the most gloriously upbeat musicals to grace a stage. Throw in Neil Simon, who wrote the book, and how can you miss having a hit? Promises2 was nominated for 8 Tony Awards and won 2 for Jerry Orbach and Marion Mercer. The show was successfully revived in 2010 in New York starring Sean Hayes and Kristin Chenoweth, but did not receive nearly the same praise from audience or critics.
