I think it's to probe beneath the surface into the deep longings of people, then to open a door into the invisible spiritual realm so people can see ultimate realities (including God, angels, demons, heaven and hell) with the eyes of faith and imagination.

I think it’s fine and appropriate to quote from Christian speakers and authors we have benefited from. But while gratefully acknowledging I have benefited from these men and women, I do not put them on a pedestal.

The apostle John says we know what God’s love is because of the unthinkable price Jesus paid for us, to turn us into God’s own children, fully acceptable in his sight. God’s love abounds.

I appreciated what C. S. Lewis wrote in The Four Loves about the vulnerability of love.

My friends Brett and Alex Harris, on their wonderful website www.therebelution.com, cited a Wall Street Journal article about the importance of reading, and the great decline in reading among boys. I have often cited this as one of the most alarming trends of our day.

Listen to audio book clips from The Chasm by Randy Alcorn and commentary from the author. Plus, see Mike Biegel's original art used in the book (mikebiegel.com). The Chasm audio book is no longer available through our store.

On Friday two of our four wonderful grandsons spent the night, and we took them to their Saturday morning basketball game. Jake, the six year old scored 5-6 times, and scored last week in his first game. 

For a long time Christians were reticent to enter the field of fiction writing. Although fiction had been popular in the secular field for a long time, it was sparse in Christian publishing. 

By viewing writing as a ministry first and a vocation only second, I remind myself it's not about me, it's about Him.

Here at the EPM office, it’s always fun for our staff when Randy’s new books arrive. There’s something special about seeing a book in physical form that Randy has worked on for months.

Here are four images and captions I love. I’ve put them under the categories of love and friendship, regret, disappointment and self-doubt, and finally, melodrama.
