The Precipice of 2024

In: Faith, Writing on: January 4, 2024

Fire and Faith by Kristin Jack

In: Faith, Reading on: December 15, 2023

Back in 2022, I “met” Kristin Jack when he hired me to edit his historical novel based on Sebastian Castellio’s friendship, and then theological war, with John Calvin. To be honest, it read more like a history book than a …

A Reminder of God’s Faithfulness

In: Faith on: December 7, 2023

I love the color blue. I especially love using it in my home.  When we moved into this house three years ago, my friend Mary suggested I do a blue-and-white plate grouping on my dining room wall. I loved the idea, but I’m …

"The Work of His Hands: a novelette”

Bea wants nothing more than to go to college and learn more about the world God created. Her mother even left money in trust for her to do so. She only wishes her father supported her dream. But when Papa gets into financial trouble in the young town of Fort Worth, Texas, Bea must decide what is more important—her education or her father's well-being. Can she trust the God of creation to make something beautiful of her life?”

Along with the story you’ll receive my newsletter updates as well.
