✨️📚 Draft complete! Book 3 is written.
✨📚 I just finished writing the draft of my third novel!
There's plenty of editing ahead, but the story is told--and that feels like such a gift.
This one's close to my heart. It's full of ache and grace, fatherhood and healing, identity and hope. Some of you might already know whose story this is. 💛
I wrote it slowly. In between workdays and laundry loads. In borrowed hours. In quiet prayers and tire Read more of this blog post »

| Our latest read-aloud. It was okay, but it just didn't hold a candle to Swindle. More of a miss for us, but younger readers might enjoy it more. ...more | |

“Rinnen scowled. “I didn’t come here after thirteen days to practice solo drills I could do at home.”
“You didn’t come here to cry, either,” Linazon said mildly, “but some things aren’t for you to decide.”
“I’m not crying,” Rinnen growled.
Linazon nodded. “You might consider it.”

“It's hard," he said after a long moment. "Trusting the Maker."
Grandfather nodded solemnly. "Yes. But I think not trusting him would be harder.”

“I opened a book and in I strode.
Now nobody can find me.
I've left my chair, my house, my road,
My town and my world behind me.
I'm wearing the cloak, I've slipped on the ring,
I've swallowed the magic potion.
I've fought with a dragon, dined with a king
And dived in a bottomless ocean.
I opened a book and made some friends.
I shared their tears and laughter
And followed their road with its bumps and bends
To the happily ever after.
I finished my book and out I came.
The cloak can no longer hide me.
My chair and my house are just the same,
But I have a book inside me.”

“Because of justification, you are completely forgiven and fully pleasing to God. You no longer have to fear failure. 2. Because of reconciliation, you are totally accepted by God. You no longer have to fear rejection. 3. Because of propitiation, you are deeply loved by God. You no longer have to fear punishment, nor do you have to punish others. 4. Because of regeneration, you have been made brand-new, complete in Christ. You no longer need to experience the pain of shame.”
