What’s the deal with short novels?

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 8, 2015 by David BergslandApril 8, 2015

I know, I’ve been on this rant for a while. I regularly get teased or worse because my technothriller, Daniel’s Mighty Men (seen to the left), is 666 pages. How can I expect anyone to actually read such a behemoth? … Continue reading →

Christian Thriller Book Reviews: The Grace Painter & The Treasure Box by Marc Romang

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 13, 2015 by David BergslandMarch 13, 2015

 I’m reviewing these together because I don’t normal read cop thrillers, Christian or not. I read them because I loved the first two books of Marc’s spiritual warfare Battle series:  Battle Scream & Battle Storm. I’m glad I did. These two books … Continue reading →

Where’s the Lord & His Holy Spirit in fiction today?

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 6, 2015 by David BergslandMarch 25, 2015

The new wave of powerful Christian fiction is really exciting. I can’t talk about how it’s manifesting in romance or mystery because I don’t read those genre. I would love it if those of you involved in those genre add … Continue reading →

Be careful of your political stance: we need repentance

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 25, 2015 by David BergslandFebruary 25, 2015

I ran across this quote this morning from Dr. David R. Reagan of Lamb & Lion Ministries. It is from part one of his six-part series on America’s Spiritual Crisis. It is but one expression in a message from God with many … Continue reading →

Be careful about extra-biblical traditions

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 24, 2015 by David BergslandFebruary 24, 2015

In Ministry Today’s daily newsletter they posted an article today called 10 of the Most Fiercely Defended Traditions in Church. It’s a silly discussion about the number of comments received about worship style, pastor duties, and so on. It’s not very … Continue reading →

They thought they had more time: I saw the day of the Lord by David Jones

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on January 6, 2015 by David BergslandJanuary 10, 2015

Creativity for Christians: in His image

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 29, 2014 by David BergslandDecember 29, 2014

Guest post: Ben Patterson on writing, connecting with non-Christians, human to human

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 1, 2014 by David BergslandNovember 21, 2014

Christian Reviewers: Our call is to discern the spiritual level of books we read to help our readers know what to expect. This is meant to help Christian leadership, parents who need to keep track of what is being fed into their children's minds, and Christian authors—by encouraging them to write powerfully edifying Christian fiction.
