READS BY CHRISTIAN AUTHORS MARK OF THE RAVEN TRILOGY (Morgan L. Busse) What if Rey Skywalker was dropped into Middle Earth, but worked for Saruman? Morgan L. Busse is one of my favorite Christian fantasy authors. Her world-building in the Ravenwood Saga series, a...
I am in the process of writing a very fun sci-fi suspense trilogy. I call it Pogland. Fun and challenging and time-consuming (which is why I've been off of social media). If you know me, you know I have some strong views on the role theology needs to play in fiction....

I recommend the Love and Logic program. Before we used this program, we had a lot of trouble in the management of our children. But incorporating the principles behind this has enabled us to see obedience in a different way. Love and logic works on the principle of...
Missing "Crucial" Detail: the Cross of Christ I looked at The Facade on two levels. The first is the storyline and craft. I am glad to have read this book. It presents a fictional scenario for the alien/demon connection in end-time events. I was engaged completely in...
