    A verse of encouragement for new believers

    I was an agnostic but came to Christ 8 years ago through a non-denominational church. I was raised fearing God in the bible, which is something you should do: have a healthy fear. But I rarely heard about the encouraging words He had for us. It was always the fire and brimstone but none of the...

    Just published my Christian book!

    You can do a "vanity" press which is how most people do it via Amazon's Kindle Program for an e-book or Create Space for a paper back. My first book in a series was done this way and all the proceeds are going to a homeless ministry we run. There are also other methods like Lulu Press and...

    How to know if u have bipolar disorder???

    My first sentence should indicate otherwise. It may be worth getting examined . What im saying is that BP is more than feeling up one moment and down the next as other BP folks in here would attest.

    How to know if u have bipolar disorder???

    It might be worth checking out with a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist, but part of a general bipolar disorder diagnosis involves the duration of those moods. I'm working on my marriage and family therapy counseling degree and we've studied bipolar disorder a million times. I also have a...

    Can You Recommend A Book To Inspire Me?

    If you want to read an adventure book that shows a relationship between a seasoned believer and a new one, you can check out "Adventures of Sammy and Alistair: Sidecar" on Amazon for the Kindle or Kindle App. Purchase profits also go towards a homeless feeding ministry at my church.

    I don't write Christian Fiction

    This is an excerpt from my blog found on Paul Caro-dot-com. That’s what I said to God when he told me to start writing Christian Fiction. Why do we always think we can tell God what we can and cannot do? I am a writer. I write articles, essays, “how to” instructionals, political stuff and...

    When trying to reach people for Christ through writing? Please respond

    Absolutely good point. Books are for telling stories. My first book is a Christian-themed one that is aimed at Christians, BUT it is a story and is part of an adventure series. It involves two people going on an adventure that have their faith tested. The characters you put in your stories must...

    FREE chapter from my first book, "The Adventures of Sammy and Alistair: Sidecar"

    Sammy is a rich, black, semi-retired man living in 1960's Georgia just on the outskirts. He's on his way to Atlanta with his nephew, Alistair. Sammy and Alistair are on a German motorcycle with a sidecar. They take a detour through Red Pass, a dangerous road that winds through a stretch of...

    What in the world is a "writing style"?

    Ok, so I published my first book through Amazon and I've had some interesting feedback from some honest people I know. They liked it, overall. But one piece of feedback I received puzzled me and I wasn't expecting it to be so puzzling. "I thoroughly enjoy your writing style." What's a...

    Obedience.

    Very good. The reason I'm in this forum as a new writer is because of obedience. God has led me down this path and I tried to resist but when He starts poking me everywhere I go with story ideas, it's a pretty good sign to start. One book down, another started and 5 more ideas in my head! Don't...

    Do all short stories require dialogue?

    Excellent point! When people read stories, they want to be in it. Think about the reader. They picked the book or someone picked it for them because there is already a sense of connection.

    My Blog

    Blog looks interesting. Read your post about the people marching through the Muslim community with the pig's head. That's just wrong, and it's exactly what turns people away from Christianity.

    Using A Different Language?

    The second book in my "Adventures of Sammy and Alistair" Christian short story series takes place in the Philippines, where there are hundreds of dialects. The main characters are from Alabama and Georgia, so to add to the cultural divide some of the locals only speak their native dialect...
