Christian Fiction Teaching Faith
This is Who I Am
I’m a Christian fiction writer and artist from Texas (no southern accent, unfortunately). I suffer from an incurable passion to invent new worlds and an incessant discontent with our dim-mirror ordinary life. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and George MacDonald are the glorious triumvirate of my favorite fiction writers. I have a soft spot in my heart for the ancient heroes of the faith in Church History and their mission to communicate the good news of Jesus to people in their time. I’m fascinated by writing that can harness the imagination to go theologically deeper than classroom lectures could.
This Is Why I Write
I have a passion for transformative Bible teaching and want to challenge present-day Christians to train their imaginations toward mirroring God’s own thoughts and desires. Sounds like a pretty ambitious goal, right? But remember, Jesus didn’t come with PowerPoint slides and lecture notes. He came telling stories about the Kingdom of God. I believe the surest way to a mind transformed into Christ-likeness is an imagination saturated with the truth of Scripture.

Christianity as Dystopia
The Secular Dystopian Myth There’s a chronic misconception in most people’s imagination about Christianity and the Bible today. It’s the misconception that Christianity is dull, rote, and oppressive. Compared with the digital flash, noise, and surface-level life of ‘liberated’ secularism, the black and white of the Bible and Christian tradition can feel like a splash …
A Lament for Christian Community: Crippling Our Witness to Jesus
A Roof and a Foundation are Essential, But Not Interchangeable. It’s no new thing to hear secondary things preached as primary things in church. The history of the Church bears witness to that pattern. While our confession and understanding of the Christian life has changed little on a foundational level, what we emphasize changes …
Overcoming Financial Fear: Living Out of God’s Hand
“Black Thursday” It was a dark day on the streets of New York City. So dark, in fact, it infamously became known as “Black Thursday”, the day ruined Wall Street stockbrokers leaped from tall buildings to their deaths during the market crash of 1929. Despite the sensationalist reports by newspapers and tabloids of the time, …
The Good News of the Fear of God
Suspended nearly 1,000 feet over the Canadian Rockies, thrill seeker Spencer Seabrooke set the solo slackline world record in 2015. Let me make something clear—slacklining isn’t tightrope walking. It’s “slack”, meaning the thin nylon strip moves and sways with Spencer’s movement, causing him to fall and catch himself multiple times over the 210-foot crossing. In …
Stories Shape How You Believe
Rumors of the unholy love affair spread fast throughout the country. But it wasn’t the rumors that got me off my knees and out the door. Some say God speaks in a still small voice, but I know that’s not always true. When God told me to go tell a story to the high king, …
Devotional from the Imitation of Christ: A Contrite Heart
In our technological, individualist western lives, we have a knee-jerk reaction against contrition. There’s a heavy expectation on us, especially in the more toxic regions of church culture, to always be happy, self-assured, and “blessed”. The result is we live in a fantasy world where negative feelings get suppressed, or worse, get dressed up as …
