You might be surprised to find that I am not just an author, but a music pastor for a wonderful church in my hometown. In fact, my wife and I moved here for that purpose long before I began writing seriously.

You also might be surprised that many people would find it odd that a Christian would write violent zombie fiction (although I don't believe the violence I write is gratuitous).

The truth is, I write what I do because it entertains me, I love it, and I don't see any conflict of interest. I believe Christians in many cases have become far too irrelevant to society in general. They are so concerned with not showing a "bad example", that often they don't realize what a true bad example is.

If Christians are to be like Jesus, why aren't we interacting with society more instead of keeping ourselves locked away where nobody outside of our small circle knows who we really are? I believe in Jesus, and I know not everybody out there does. I also know not everybody out there even appreciates that. But I think if we get to the heart of things, we can always find similar things that we love.

For instance...zombies. :-)
