Messiah’s Mind, Jesus is the head, we’re the Body

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 18, 2016 by David BergslandSeptember 18, 2016

All of our direction comes from Messiah’s Mind. If it doesn’t we’re fools, at best. Everything we do down here is merely the seed for what happens after we go. As usual, John Follette says it well: I am so … Continue reading →

To the end of yourself, have you arrived?

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 11, 2016 by David BergslandSeptember 11, 2016

Have you come to the end of yourself yet? This is what struck me this afternoon as I gave the Lord some time to talk with me. I was reading Golden Grain again after the scripture passage He gave me: … Continue reading →

Christian YA Urban Fantasy: Bloodline, The Chronicle of the Three, Book 1, by Tabitha Caplinger

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on November 23, 2015 by David BergslandNovember 23, 2015

Enjoyable read, entertaining, but perplexing I’ve really been wondering how to review this book. I had high hopes. It’s written by an Assembly of God youth pastor. It’s about spiritual warfare. So, it should be great, right? [yasr_overall_rating size=”large”] The … Continue reading →

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 30, 2015 by David BergslandSeptember 30, 2015

I’m almost sorry I have to review this as Christian fiction. I mean Bethany says it is. He’s represented by Steve Laube. Of course it’s Christian. Right? The book is entertaining, brilliant, creative, and very well written. It’s a professional … Continue reading →

Christian Book Review: Room of Marvels by James Bryan Smith: 3 stars

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 15, 2014 by David BergslandAugust 17, 2014

Not visionary or prophetic, this is speculative popular fiction for the masses. This is a modern version of C. S. Lewis-type allegories and tales like “The Great Divorce”. When compared with true visionary books like “Close Encounters of a God … Continue reading →

Guest post: The need & purpose of Christian speculative fiction by Guy Stanton III

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 10, 2014 by David BergslandNovember 5, 2014
