To Dance
Royce is a ten-year-old boy trying to make sense of the world around him. Why are people afraid? What makes people cry? Why does hatred exist? How should you love others? Through a series of journal entries, Royce chronicles his school year of pain, racial injustice, and what it’s like to see the world through the eyes of a child.
Laurie is a grieving mother who can’t let go of her past. All she has is bitterness and rage—questions with no answers. In order to find true healing, she must embark on a journey that unveils the root of her pain and forces her to face the demons she has spent her life trying to forget.
As their fates collide, Royce and Laurie will venture into an alternate reality to explore truths behind some of life’s most difficult questions and unleash the power that lies in new beginnings. To Dance will inspire you to find peace amidst your pain, to find significance within your pain, and to find freedom despite your pain.

Children's Literature
The Bat and the Mule
I would like to introduce you to a bat named Ralph and a Mule named Jerry! Even though they are traveling the same path, these two animals have completely opposite viewpoints of the world around them.
When they refuse to see the other's perspective, it creates a physical divide between them that threatens to destroy any chance they have at a lasting friendship. Will they overcome their differences and learn how to get along, or will their pride win the day?
The Bat and the Mule encourages children to respect the opinions of others, to understand the extent to which our words have consequences, and to see the dangers of being “blind as a bat” and “stubborn as a mule.”

Spiritual Nonfiction
Demons Know My Name
In a world that is image-obsessed and popularity-driven, the term “Christian” has become more of a label to parade than a lifestyle to pursue. We live in a culture that loves to put “God 1st” in its social media bio but thinks of God last when making decisions every day. The intentions are there, but the actions are missing. And if we think it’s no big deal or that we’ve got the world fooled, here’s the harsh reality: even a demon knows a hypocrite when it sees one.
Demons Know My Name is a rally cry for teenagers to elevate their faith and awaken a newfound sense of what it means to become a serious threat to the enemy. The days of lukewarm faith and one-foot-in-one-foot-out Christianity are over. The real battle is about to begin.
Will you join the fight?
