Christian book review: Celtic Cross by Tammy Doherty

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 17, 2014 by David BergslandSeptember 17, 2014

After living in New Mexico for twenty five years, a good western always feels like going home. This is a very nice Western. The Christianity is low level evangelical. In other words, there’s no rebirth transformation and no personal communication … Continue reading →

Christian Book Review: Collide: Birth of a New Race by L. A. Ramsey

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 16, 2014 by David BergslandSeptember 16, 2014

OK, I snookered myself into a romance. Under the guise that it is a fantasy, I promised accept a free copy—then read it and review it. It’s a fun read Though it’s classed as a historical romance, there’s little history … Continue reading →

Christian book review: F. A.I.R.I.E.S.: Baptism By Fire by M C Pearson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 10, 2014 by David BergslandSeptember 17, 2014

This book I’m almost embarrassed to admit I liked it as much as I did I must admit I had a hard time taking this story seriously. But it held my interest well, and I really enjoyed it. It’s a … Continue reading →

Christian book review: Oil: A fanciful prophetic interpretation of the near future

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 28, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 28, 2014

Here comes the Madhi, 12th Imam, Islam’s messiah. This speculative tale about the revealing of this man is tense and exciting. It’s believable. And it stops dead, before anything is resolved. I can understand why, but it’s very irritating. Jeff … Continue reading →

Working with the Holy Spirit on your book

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 28, 2014 by David BergslandMarch 24, 2019

Here’s where the rubber meets the road. If the Holy Spirit is deeply involved in your conscious life, He offers you help of which the world has no concept. Paul tells us that Jesus is our righteousness and our wisdom. … Continue reading →

Christian Book Review: Descent into the Wilds by Terry L. Craig

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 23, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 25, 2014

This is a very interesting book. I was given a free copy by the publisher through Book Crash in return for an unbiased review. But it starts with several strikes against it. First of all is the name of the … Continue reading →

Christian book review: The Enclave by Karen Hancock

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 21, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 25, 2014

This is yet another excellent book by Karen. It is typical mainline Christian publishing—Bethany House for this one. That now assures us that there will be nothing radical as far as the belief structure is concerned. It’s hard to call … Continue reading →

Christian book review: Gemworld by Jeremy Bullard

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 21, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 21, 2014

This is the first book of The Facets of Reality series, and I loved it! It is an exceptionally inventive piece of speculative fiction—probably in the fantasy genre. But, it’s so much more. The characters are compelling. The action is … Continue reading →

Christian book review: The Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 18, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 18, 2014

I read one of my well-loved favorites from my hippie days, to cleanse the palette, as it were. The memories were far better than the reality. I first read this book in 1967 or ’68. It was a major influence … Continue reading →

Christian book review: Chasing Redemption by Bruce Fottler

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 17, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 18, 2014

An excellent military thriller set in space, i.e. a Christian science fiction read. I wouldn’t call it excellent Christian fiction I see it as very good science fiction with some Christian characters. There’s certainly nothing wrong with that, and I … Continue reading →
