Making fictional evil real

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 9, 2019 by David BergslandNovember 20, 2022

Making fictional evil real always remains a focus of excellent Christian fiction—at the levels of four and five especially. But any fiction showing spiritual truth requires Absolute Truth when describing the enemy, also. This never appears in worldly or entertaining fiction. … Continue reading →

Faith motivates perseverance from the promise

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 26, 2019 by David BergslandMay 26, 2019

Faith motivates perseverance from the promise, but the promise comes first. I asked the Lord if He would help me and bless the Ferellonian King series. He told me He would. I told Him I would trust Him to do that. … Continue reading →

Lower than angels, no

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 19, 2019 by David BergslandMay 19, 2019

Like many revelations from God, this one started innocuously. Are we lower than angels, no we are not? Paul makes this very clear in I Corinthians 6:3a, “Do you not know that we shall judge angels?” NKJV. I was reading … Continue reading →

Tinderbox exceptionally warm and suspenseful

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 4, 2019 by David BergslandMay 5, 2019

Written by my wife, Patricia: As a long time reader of most of Beverly’s books, I found Tinderbox exceptionally warm and suspenseful. The characters are well developed and compelling. The plot was complex and intriguing. I could not figure it out … Continue reading →

Second book surprises immediately as usual

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 2, 2019 by David BergslandMay 2, 2019

I love writing fiction. I’m well underway with book two. In Staff of Darkness, the second book surprises immediately though that is not unusual. My goal is a second book showing spiritual power without depressing me. Second books have become a … Continue reading →

The Darkened Land speaks allegorically

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 11, 2019 by David BergslandApril 11, 2019

Larry Paris’ Kindle version release of The Darkened Land speaks allegorically and well. This is not an allegory like A Pilgrim’s Progress where you know what is happening by the names used. The Darkened Land is a unique place where Dark and … Continue reading →

Perseverance furthers with believers especially authors

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 8, 2019 by David BergslandJanuary 27, 2024

Yes, I know this phrase comes from the I Ching, but perseverance furthers with believers especially authors. Scripture talks a lot about overcomers and overcoming. Long-suffering shows up as a fruit of the Spirit. Don’t quit remains one of the most common … Continue reading →

Christine Wachter Christian fantasy is entertaining

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 2, 2019 by David BergslandApril 2, 2019

Christine Wachter Christian fantasy is entertaining. This book begins very dark, oppressively dark, necessarily dark, and depressing. It’s definitely fiction of a high order. It brings Truth in the midst of a world having horrors which surpass reality. Yet, it … Continue reading →

Writing Christian fiction requires special care

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 2, 2019 by David BergslandApril 2, 2019

I’ve learned writing Christian fiction requires special care. This is especially true for fantasy. Creating transformational books demands Holy Spirit involvement. After spending well over thirty years on book one, I’m beginning book two. I didn’t start writing professionally until … Continue reading →

Remember the original spontaneous Holy Spirit of life?

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 24, 2019 by David BergslandDecember 8, 2023

Remember the original spontaneous Holy Spirit of life? I’ve fond memories, but they were quite rare—even during the time of renewal when I was called to meet Him. [Yes, He called me. I was too stupid to even seek Him.] God’s … Continue reading →
