I take an Ipad and go for a ride in the mountains. I'll usually find something that will inspire me to get my fingers typing.

Get away from the TV and internet because it can pull your focus completely away from your writing and your inner creativity. I'm sure my next book would be done had I never been introduced to facebook!(less)

I've had people get so into my book, they are asking for GPS coordinates to specific locations.
I've also enjoyed talking to High School english and writing classes telling them if I can write a book, anyone can. I think we all have at least one book inside us. The challenge is to get it on paper and expressing it in a manner others will enjoy.(less)

Quotes by Scott Christensen  (?)

“Consequently, the greatest place in all of creation and history will contain no hint of the kind of free will that Arminians argue is so valuable in this present world. Nonetheless, the future world will be marked by perfect freedom for the sake of perfect goodness, love, and joy. If the freedom of contrary choice is such a valuable and necessary treasure —indispensable for generating genuine good—then why doesn’t heaven have this treasure?”
Scott Christensen, Defeating Evil: How God Glorifies Himself in a Dark World

“Human beings are the focus of God’s greater displays of glory—not animals, not angels. Thus, it follows that humans reside in a unique position by which to behold this greater glory. Their special relationship with the Creator means that they become recipients of his actions in unique ways that no other creature experiences. But the greatest glory of God is reserved for the work he does in those humans he chooses to redeem, as we will see. Even the angels long to fully grasp this glorious work of God reserved for the elect few (1 Peter 1:12).”
Scott Christensen, Defeating Evil: How God Glorifies Himself in a Dark World

“This is known as compatibilism, the idea that God’s meticulous sovereignty is compatible with human freedom and responsibility.16 God is the remote but primary (ultimate) cause of all human actions as the transcendent Author of those actions. Conversely, we are the immediate but secondary cause of all our actions. Examples from Scripture could be multiplied, but statements from the book of Proverbs will suffice: “The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps” (Prov. 16:9). “Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand” (19:21). “The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD; he turns it wherever he will” (21:1).”
