Earlier last month, I wrote and illustrated a new children’s book about a chupacabra named Churro who loves to make pies (yes—fully illustrated by me… I’m still a little proud of that).
Stylistically, it follows the same rhyming, picture-driven approach as my previous work. But the real question is: why a chupacabra?
Growing up, one of my cousins was completely obsessed with chupacabra lore. She knew everything—where it lived, what it did, how it hunted. For the uninitiated, the legend goes...
As a writer, I'm used to a certain grind. Long writing sessions, endless edits, and “just one more chapter” can feel like proof I'm dedicated to the craft. But the truth is, rest isn’t optional, it’s part of the creative process.
Rest is Sacred, Not Lazy
In the Bible, God models rest. After six days of creation, He rested on the seventh. Rest isn’t about doing nothing; it’s about being restored, reconnected to God, and renewed in purpose. As a writer, taking time to step back allows my mind to...
The Unseen World in Everyday Life
It’s easy to assume that God’s presence is most evident in dramatic moments such as answered prayers that change everything, miracles that defy explanation, or spiritual experiences that feel unmistakable. Yet far more often, His presence is revealed quietly, woven into the ordinary details of daily life.
The unseen world does not always announce itself with thunder. Sometimes, it whispers.
The Small Things We Almost Miss
Consider how often we move through the...
From the earliest pages of Scripture, the supernatural is woven into the story of God’s interaction with humanity. Angels appear, dreams carry messages, miracles interrupt ordinary life, and unseen battles shape visible history.
But what exactly is supernatural Christian fiction?
Supernatural Christian fiction is storytelling that acknowledges a reality beyond what can be seen, measured, or explained by human reason alone while remaining rooted in a Christian worldview. These stories explore...

Several years ago, my pastor challenged us with a simple but life-shaping exercise. He asked us to fill in the blank: “I was put on this earth to ___.” The reason needed to be compelling—something that would drive us, shape us, and carry us through the ups and downs of life.
For me, the answer came clearly: “I was put on this earth to tell God’s truth through story.”
That calling has stayed with me ever since. Storytelling not only shapes my life, giving me fresh perspective and deeper...
I love to write adult Christian fiction, stories that explore the unseen world, faith in the midst of trials, and God’s presence in extraordinary circumstances. I enjoy it deeply.
But in the summer of 2025, something happened that nudged me in an unexpected direction.
My wife and I had the opportunity to travel to Norway, and one of our stops took us all the way north to Tromsø. As we explored the town, I noticed something that stood out as unordinary. Instead of the usual “bird spikes” we so...
The thumbnail image is from the dedication page for my debut novel Legacy. I thought it would be a nice way to honor one of the greatest teachers I've ever had in my life.
I only had Ms. Nunley for one year, but she held me to an incredibly high standard. You see, when I attended high school, I was what you'd call a slacker (but not in the traditional sense of the word). Every year up to my junior year, I would figure out the bare minimum I had to do to get by with an A in a particular class,...
