We Need Heroes.
We need men and women who are going to stand up and say what needs to be said, no matter what the cost may be. To many, Charlie Kirk was a hero. He is now a martyr, yes, but he remains a hero. Honestly? The man was no more than a name to me untilContinue reading “We Need Heroes.”
Me? Love Them? A Guest Post by Brave Author D. T. Powell
Today, I want to introduce you to my Brave Author of the Month, D.T. Powell. In June, D.T. released her Contemporary Christian novel, With Mercy’s Eyes. The story resonated with me because a few years earlier, I myself had taken on the challenge of writing about someone who was same sex attracted. (You can readContinue reading “Me? Love Them?

Author D.T. Powell on “The Myth of ‘The Other'”
How can a Christian author write about a topic as controversial as homosexuality in a way that is both loving and Biblical, and does not simply rely on current church interpretations? Last year, I shared a heartfelt post about my beloved character, Christian Richter (you can visit the post here). Like me, author D.T. PowellContinue reading “Author D.T.

“Under Construction” ~ A Shared Story
I am sharing the post below because the author’s story so closely parallels my own. While many ministers recoil at the term “deconstruction,” many Christians who go through a process of reexamining what they believe do not end up straying from the faith or denying it. Rather, they find they have grown closer to Jesus,Continue reading ““Under Construction” ~ A Shared Story”
Never Again
In lieu of a regular update, I am sharing this post that I made back in January on author Jennifer Heeren’s blog, Hope in Circumstances, which encourages authors to share truths readers can draw from fiction. I will be sharing on a related topic later this month on the same blog, so this is aContinue reading “Never Again”
What Do We Do With Our Pain?
“I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living!”—Psalm 27:13 (ESV) Perhaps you’ve read the Bible story about Job. He was a godly man who was taken through horrible, seemingly inexplicable suffering. Yet in the end, he not only received much more than he’d had before,Continue reading “What Do We Do With Our Pain?”
Good Friday
As I sit at my computer, my hand is swollen and typing is uncomfortable. After lecturing my kids about the far-reaching consequences of sin and stupid choices, I am bearing the brunt of my own. For someone like me, who spent years struggling to make decisions simply out of fear of making the wrong one,Continue reading “Good Friday”
