Yes, massive changes required the wilderness

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 9, 2021 by David BergslandDecember 9, 2021

Yes, massive changes required the wilderness or—what happened when Jesus was filled with the Holy Spirit? I know: “How the heck do you know, David?” But again, I believe the Lord showed me some stuff this morning. I want to … Continue reading →

Discipleship teaches discipline and applies Truth

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on February 18, 2018 by David BergslandFebruary 18, 2018

Again, we need to cover rarely taught reality: Discipleship teaches discipline and applies Truth to develop character. This remains a central truth in the Christian walk. We rejoice in our suffering—knowing what it teaches. It’s a PITA (pain in the … Continue reading →

Constant spiritual warfare is the normal Christian life

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on October 6, 2017 by David BergslandNovember 1, 2022

Constant spiritual warfare is the normal Christian life, and that has increased in the five years since I wrote this article. I read a short article in Charisma that day in 2017 about the Creep’s subtlety called Satan’s Subtle Strategy. … Continue reading →

Positioning Yourself in Reality

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 20, 2017 by David BergslandAugust 20, 2017

“Step One: positioning yourself  in  reality “spirit—soul—body”. Man always says: body—soul—spirit. Why? Because man is body conscious first, and knows little about this spirit, but knows a lot about the body. God always says: “Spirit, soul, and body” because His … Continue reading →

Christian Science Fiction Spirit-Filled Award

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 31, 2016 by David BergslandDecember 29, 2021

For a Christian Science Fiction Spirit-Filled series, Yvonne Anderson’s books are rarely equaled. Gateway to Gannah is one of the best I’ve read this decade. Book one, The Story In The Stars, is the best of the four books in the series—though … Continue reading →

You can’t write redemptive fiction, without His power

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 24, 2016 by David BergslandApril 24, 2016

I want to start with a little quote from John Follette in “Golden Grain”: Education is good, but I want it to be where it belongs. It is the mechanism, the mechanics, the world of flesh and time. It does … Continue reading →

Is it time for Christian fiction to die? by Eric Wilson

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 20, 2016 by David BergslandApril 20, 2016

March 19, 2011 Eric wrote this over five years ago. I’d like to be able to say that we’ve come a long way since then. In some ways we have—but only for the indies and the self-publishers. Traditional publishers still have … 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 →

The world does not hate you. Why not?

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on September 27, 2015 by David BergslandSeptember 27, 2015

In my studies this week, the passage which stood out has caused me to meditate on it until today. This morning the Lord told me to share my ruminations. Here’s the passage. But first a word from my Lord. When … 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 →
