Christian fantasy: The Healer’s Rune by Lauricia Matuska

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 2, 2016 by David BergslandApril 2, 2016

What a fun ride this was. A world in which to escape with enough truth to keep it real. That’s what I look for in Christian fiction. This book qualifies. [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] Christian fantasy entertainment This is not redemptive, yet … Continue reading →

Christian science fiction: The Coder & The Fixer by Celesta Thiessen

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 3, 2016 by David BergslandJanuary 13, 2017

It’s a limited world, a couple of space ships. But the society is well-crafted, the characters are developed nicely, and the story is compelling. Every book I read by Celesta is better than the last. She’s become an author I … Continue reading →

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on January 27, 2016 by David BergslandJanuary 27, 2016

Oh, yes! This was my best Christmas present this year! Christian fantasy of the redemptive kind. Well written, a world well-crafted, evil people galore, true believers, and God wins—what a book(s)! [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] This is what we look for with … Continue reading →

Christian dystopian fiction review: The Safe Lands by Jill Williamson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 26, 2014 by David BergslandDecember 26, 2014

This is a series I’ve been half-heartedly waiting to finish for a long time. Because it is traditionally published by Zondervan, I was very suspect of the spiritual level of the books. In addition, for the same reason, they were … Continue reading →

Christian book review: Seek And Hide by Amanda G. Stevens

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on November 3, 2014 by David BergslandNovember 3, 2014

Official blurb: Six years ago, the government took control of the church. Only re-translated Bibles are legal, and a specialized agency called the Constabulary enforces this and other regulations. Marcus Brenner, a new Christian, will do anything to protect his church … Continue reading →

Review: Objects of Wrath by Sean T Smith: 3+ stars

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 6, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

I wouldn’t call this a Christian book except on a basic Old Testament level, maybe barely evangelical with some Christian morals but no savior. It’s a gritty, tough view of the destruction of our world before the end times written … Continue reading →

Review: Surviving the Apocalypse At by Celesta Thiessen

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 6, 2014 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2015

There be zombies! Was I surprised. A strange Christian thriller. This is a Christian book, so I assumed it was about the “real” apocalypse coming soon. In fact, the Coming King is not even hinted. However, it’s a good story…a … Continue reading →

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.
