Feb 13, 2026 – We welcome award-winning author Jim Logan — a fourth-generation Oklahoman — aboard our time machine to discuss his debut novel, “Of Saints and Rivers.” The author, at 81, is as inspiring as his sweeping story that encompasses all the highs and lows of the period from the Gilded Age, Dustbowl, and Great Depression through the World Wars and the 1950s.

The novel is the multi-generational saga of the McClellan family told through the eyes of their youngest son, Jordan. It’s a coming-of-age story that begins on the Oklahoma frontier and transports us to places like Mexico and a seminary, exploring themes of faith, family legacy, and the search for meaning. The book is praised as an emotionally rich, award-winning debut novel for fans of authors like Kristin Hannah and William Kent Krueger.
