I’m genre hunting trying contemporary christian fantasy

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on April 18, 2021 by David BergslandApril 18, 2021

I’m genre hunting trying contemporary christian fantasy and it’s a hard sell. Urban fantasy has far too much worldly stuff. Christian contemporary doesn’t normally have spiritual warfare and miraculous events. Paranormal implies that you really have no idea how to … Continue reading →

The Pre-Christian Kinsmans Tree contains truth

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on June 27, 2017 by David BergslandJune 27, 2017

Importantly, the Pre-Christian Kinsmans Tree contains truth in enough measure to work well. This fantasy of a unique world at times seems to be allegorical Genesis. And, then again it’s pure fantasy. The Kinsman’s Tree is rich with meaning on many … Continue reading →

Dystopian YA thriller: The Senator’s Youngest Daughter

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 29, 2016 by David BergslandDecember 29, 2016

This book reads like a dystopian YA thriller —though the characters seem to be bit older. It’s a familiar scenario. Here’s the prologue: Eight years ago, at the height of a media crisis centered on a controversial decision by the … Continue reading →

Christian dystopian speculative fiction: Keepers of Men by Eric Martindale

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on May 18, 2016 by David BergslandMay 18, 2016

This was not a fun book to read for me. First, as old as I am, I would not survive. Second, the immediate future of “civilization” on the Earth in the USA will probably not be pretty. But then God … Continue reading →

David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on December 6, 2015 by David BergslandDecember 6, 2015

I’ve read several books recently which outwardly seemed to be strong, redemptive, or even spirit-filled fiction. But they missed the mark. They were filled with what the Spirit calls works of the flesh, in particular: party spirit. Conservatives against liberals, … Continue reading →
