First platted as Park Resort and later Harrison, Panama City received its current designation in 1909. More than 100 years ago, men of vision recognized the attractiveness and potential of this land along the shores of St. Andrews Bay, and those visionaries established a city that is now anticipating its centennial year. A local newspaper once reported that such men "saw that nature had dealt kindly with that section of the country and that with properly directed effort a great future awaited it." Others claimed the area was "nothing but a wilderness." Today nature's kindness to those who reside on these shores is apparent. This volume pays tribute to the city by recognizing the places, events, and, most importantly, the individuals who have inspired its success.

Tommy didn't expect it to be like this. At such a young age, he never expected to face death nor his sins until later in life. Now, face-to-face with the Father, he quickly sees that he is not prepared for this day. Uncertain as to what he'll say, Tommy listens to what those around him confess. One told of his mission work, of helping others in foreign lands, another of her achievements as a movie actress and how fame and fortune had allowed her to donate to charity. Inching closer to the throne, Tommy is seized by panic and is tempted to turn and run, but where? He knows there is no place to hide from God. Tommy soon realizes that no one escapes the final judgment. Is Tommy ready? He has no choice, for he's next in The Judgment Line.
