Older Author Interview
Maybe about 4-5 years ago, while the book was still in production but under contract, I was interviewed by the Manchester Wesley Research Centre (based at Nazarene Theological College).
Someone e-mailed the link to me recently, and it was fun to go back over what I'd said about the work back then.

“We tend to use prayer as a last resort, but God wants it to be our first line of defense. We pray when there's nothing else we can do, but God wants us to pray before we do anything at all.
Most of us would prefer, however, to spend our time doing something that will get immediate results. We don't want to wait for God to resolve matters in His good time because His idea of 'good time' is seldom in sync with ours.”

Hi Andrew. Thanks for the friendvite, and the discussion on the Literary Horror group. I appreciate making contacts with another follower of Christ on Goodreads.
