Calling the American church out of the shallows and into the deeper waters of the faith
I am just back from Cincinnati where I attended the GHC Midwest for the first time.

Here it is: Sages of Darkness is an exciting action packed series about a demon … Read More “Brock Eastman KickStarter Campaign” »
I want to thank Family Fiction for the chance to do an interview about “The Lesser Sun,” the second book in The Wandering, to correspond with its Fall release. While the book doesn’t look like it’ll be out in October as we’d hoped, I trust it won’t be delayed too much longer. In the meantime, … Read More “Family Fiction Interview” »

This post is part of a series on Ray Bradbury and his book, “The Martian Chronicles,” which will run from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend.
