At one time, it seemed like almost every Christian had a blog. Back in the early days of blogging, just about everybody went to Blogger or WordPress, began a free account, and tapped out their first few articles. Some quickly realized it wasn’t for them, but many others stuck it out for months or...

I often get questions from people who have been in a career for a while who want to know if it is feasible for them to go back to school and get a PhD in my field of New Testament/Early Christianity.  In most cases it is not feasible at all, simply because it is way too complicated and involved —...

Example moves the world more than doctrine. Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him. Art is only a means to life, to the life more abundant. It is not in itself the life more abundant. It merely points the way, […]

Social Media, twitter specifically, horrifies me. While it is a great tool to get into contact with your creators etc it is also a very tempting sink-hole of trouble that can spiral.

This poem has been named an Honorable Mention in the Goodreads Poetry Contest of May 2018! Read it here:


A tiny home beside a wood
the big pond with swans

lives on in me

at times now
I view the supermoon

I reached a happy, personal milestone today.
The first three chapters of my new novel, tentatively titled The Reluctant Racist, are ready to send out to prospective literary agents. Here’s hoping someone literary will like it enough to pick it up!

Great for fans of Suspense, Dogs, and Romance

This book is well written and has considerable suspense over the characters’ fate. In fact, as someone who is not a fan of dogs I was pleasantly surprised to find it a page-turner for about 3/4 of the book. There are three main characters and each have... Read more of this blog post »
