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?

Hurt by the Church: A Guest Post by Author Katelyn Pfeiffer
Church hurt is both a buzzword and a taboo subject. It is controversial because so many people who once called themselves Christians have “deconstructed” their faith and left the church. Yet is there legitimacy to much of this soul-searching? Those who have followed me for a while may already know that this is a burdenContinue reading “Hurt by the Church: A Guest Post by Author Katelyn Pfeiffer”

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.

Book Reviews and Reflections: Bonhoeffer
I gave this book 5 stars before I even finished it. I honestly don’t know how I can possibly write a review that will give it justice, without the review being so long that you might as well just read the book itself. Here is the succinct review I left on Goodreads: “An incredibly richContinue reading “Book Reviews and Reflections: Bonhoeffer”
“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”
