TRUTH AND EVIL

Three-Time Literary Award Winner!

A Christian Historical Fiction Novelette Set During WW2


During the height of World War 2, a young German soldier on the Russian front is unexpectedly killed moments after committing a heinous and unforgivable crime. After his soul is hurled through the aether, he finds himself surrounded by blinding light and standing before God to explain his actions and face judgement.

In this powerful WW2 Christian historical fiction, instead of condemning the young man’s soul, God mysteriously sends him back to earth to relive the moment until he can change the outcome and come to understand the nature of truth and evil.

This challenging spiritual fiction novelette follows the young soldier’s harrowing journey as he faces off against the father of all lies and confronts the worst and best of humanity—our capacity to commit unspeakable evil and our potential to embody the divine courage needed to combat that evil and restore balance in the world.

As God slowly rebuilds the young man’s soul through his excruciating journey across several iterations of a living hell, the young soldier becomes greater than just a man, and his tribulations help change the entire course of history as we know it.

Meet My Amazing Artist Friends!

My Pledge:


Image

I am pledging 10% of all book royalties to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

In truth, I recognize that I am extremely blessed to be among the very few authors and artists who has had the good fortune of turning their artform into a sustainable career that can provide for their family.

In recognition of this great honor (and all the blessings in my life), I am vowing to not only give back 10% of my royalties to charitable causes, but I vow to always instill valuable moral lessons within each story, understanding and appreciating your time as the reader.

Time is a bank account where we never know the current balance, and I regard your time as sacred. With this in mind, I vow to never waste your time. I vow to give the very best of myself to every story I write.

In terms of St. Jude CRH, I cannot think of a worthier cause. It is my understanding that they never send a bill to the families they are helping, and I commend this pledge. If a family is in a position trying to save their child, their absolute last consideration should be how they are going to pay for it or rebound from any debts incurred. God bless you all, St. Jude CRH team.

Down the road, I will incorporate addition charities into this pledge. For example, I have two stories that are centered around Native American tribes. I would love to give back profits from those stories to fund educational programs on any of the reservations or donate to any museums dedicated to preserving the history and cultural of their given tribe.

As my career in writing continues to scale, I am committed to scaling these contributions and doing as much as I can with the blessings and resources at my disposal. It would be an honor to help as many people as I can in this lifetime, especially the next generation and beyond.
