But you shall have power to be my witnesses

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 8, 2016 by David BergslandMay 8, 2016

“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭MEV‬ What does this mean? … Continue reading →

Be careful who you listen to

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 7, 2016 by David BergslandMay 7, 2016

This is a copy of a post on bergsland.org, four years ago examining Galatians 5:7-9. It may well be more relevant today. Ask God if you’re not sure something or someone is true. The Holy Spirit will certainly guide you into … Continue reading →

New audio version of “The Narrow Gate” was released today

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 6, 2015 by David BergslandOctober 6, 2015

This is one of my Christian teaching books about which I get excited. It’s an analysis of scriptural requirements and how that differs from the experience of most Christians today. Tim Côté did a superb job of narration and he … Continue reading →

Christian speculative fiction book review: The Quest for Paradise by Guy Stanton III

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on July 24, 2015 by David BergslandJuly 24, 2015

This is yet another superb book by Guy and a solid close to the Water Wars series. Like myself, Guy is a Biblical literalist. He takes it further than most—but that’s expected of the top speculative writers. He claims the … Continue reading →

Christian Science Fiction book reviews: The Word Reclaimed & Word Unleased by Steve Rzasa

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 7, 2015 by David BergslandApril 7, 2015

The Word Reclaimed & The Word Unleashed OK, these are quite old—from Marcher Lord Press now Enclave Publishing: 2009 & 2010. They are also excellent Christian science fiction. To quote the blurb: Baden picked up the wrong book. In the far … Continue reading →

Noah: the movie takes a couple of liberties (spoiler alert)

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 28, 2014 by David BergslandMarch 29, 2014

I’ve been thinking about watching Noah. But I’ve been concerned about what I have heard. The link to the review in Red Alert has me almost convinced to wait until I can get it through Roku—and maybe not even then. … Continue reading →

Review: Bell Mountain by Lee Duigon, Fun story, spiritually weak

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on March 2, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

I really enjoyed reading this book. The only quibble is I have no answers about the world in which it takes place. I wanted much more about the politics, geography, economy, personalities, and so on. Everything seemed only mentioned and … Continue reading →

Review: Crossover by John C. Dalglish

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on November 8, 2013 by David BergslandNovember 8, 2013

A fun & suspenseful mystery [if you like that kind of thing] In general, I don’t. But the story brought me in and it was a pleasant ride. The characters were believable and, just as important, likable. The bad guys … Continue reading →

Gritty, speculative Christian fiction

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on July 11, 2013 by David BergslandJuly 11, 2013

As you probably know, I read a lot [2-5 books a week]. I like Clancy, Cussler, De Brul, Dale Brown, Brad Thor, early Vince Flynn, W.E.B Griffin’s speculative Presidential Agent series, Baldacci’s Camel Club series, and so on. Most of … Continue reading →

Book review: Life’s a Pain by Todd Rettberg

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 4, 2013 by David BergslandJune 4, 2013

Welcome to my world. I accepted the assignment to review this book because I thought it was about what I have lived as the husband of a pastor who has been in pain, bad pain, ever since she was in … Continue reading →
