The following is an archival post from my previous blog that I just happened to stumble across yesterday. In light of the coming election, I thought it was something all Christians needed to remember. While visiting Facebook the other day, I stumbled across a message from my good friend Celeste perrino Walker, who had … More A Does Not Equal B
I have a book in my library at home that, every time I pick it up to read, scares the whoopie out of me. I read a few pages and am troubled so much by the words that I have to put it down. The book is Absolute Surrender by Andrew Murray. Maybe that’s where … More The Next Level
I paused. The night was filled with the sound of crickets and running water from the river. A pale sliver of moon jutted over the distant hills, and the stars littered the night sky. “Go on,” Infinity urged me. “That’s…that’s all I remember,” I muttered, feeling ashamed. “Well, that’s a start,” Infinity said. “More will … More Ch. 7: Howls in the Night
About a year ago, I was putting the last few chapters together for my six-year Christian suspense project, The Champion Series. It follows a pastor, Harris Borden, through extraordinary circumstances over a period of 22 years, as he is imprisoned, branded a terrorist, establishes an underground army and takes on big business and then even … More Do You Believe in Happy Endings?
When the cute guy in a suit and shades pulled Infinity out of class, I was immediately curious as to what gives. Course, our fearsome foursome—and maybe Devin—were the only ones who really knew who Infinity’s Daddy was. Devin used to make a big joke about it with us, said she didn’t really have to … More Chapter 6: Get a Horse!
I’ll be the first to admit, talking about evil, real evil, gives me a chill. And rightly so. Christians know about Satan, and believe, just as we believe in the goodness and redeeming power of Jesus Christ. And just knowing Satan is real gives one pause. But the Bible also tells us: “…whatever is true, … More How Should a Christian Portray Evil?
I’d been joking when I mentioned McDonalds, but Finn knew I wasn’t kidding about being hungry. My hypoglycemia was kicking in, and I knew that if I didn’t get something to eat soon, I would either become a very cranky person or collapse on the trail we were following. Finn didn’t want to stop and … More Chapter 5: Burgers with No Fries
Two days of rest made a world of difference for me and Infinity. We barely had had the strength to make it up the hill where Evangelist was camped out, but in two days I felt like I was ready to hike across the United States, which it sounded like was Evangelist’s plan from the … More Ch. 4: No Rest for the Weary
I guess it was unusual to send someone new to the job for such an important task. But those were crazy days. The Secret Service was spread thin; 120 men and women responsible for the President, Vice President, members of the Cabinet and their families. Congress had their own worries and their own branch to … More Chapter 3: The Wiseman and the Obstinate
As I probably mentioned, I am working on the very rough draft for “Infinity’s Reach,” the post-apocalyptic retelling of Pilgrim’s Progress. My experience in the past week or so has very much been a revisit of the principles of “the best laid schemes of mice and men often going awry” (with apologies to Robert Burns) … More Triple Play
