Together, these disciplines create compelling stories grounded in both intense realism and enduring faith.When he is not writing, he is a devoted husband and father, drawing constant inspiration from the family God entrusted to him. His unique journey, from Navy sailor to Air Force controller to Christian author, continues to shape the authentic worlds he builds and the unforgettable characters who inhabit them.
