Origins – Reverend’s Interlude
Welcome to Origins, a special series exploring the backstories of Batternton’s key figures. In "Reverend’s Interlude," we delve into the life of Reverend Aaron James, a man whose near-fatal encounter changed his path forever. When all hope seemed lost, it was the wilds of Batternton that intervened, offering him a second chance and revealing blessings within its mysteries.
Now the leader of Paradise Church, Reverend James is a devoted guide to his congregation, seeing the town’s shadows as a source of protection and purpose rather than fear. This interlude offers a glimpse into the reverend’s journey to faith and his belief in Batternton’s power to transform and protect those who embrace it.
