Jak & the Scarlet Thread series
Death. It’s the one experience everyone will share…except, perhaps, for 12-year-old Jak Hamelton. Gramma Josie died in his arms and he’d do anything to get her back. But is it really true the dead can come back to life?
Readers of all ages “can’t put the book down!” Riveting adventure through the first book of the Bible: Genesis.
“A Beautiful Hell” Trilogy
The “A Beautiful Hell” trilogy is dedicated to everyone who has ever wondered how a good God could have created hell.
What exactly is hell? Is it truly necessary? Why can’t God just forgive people? And how could the death of one man, Jesus, do anything to prevent others from going to hell?
“A Beautiful Hell” plunges into God’s relentless ache to restore paradise. Something happened on the cross, something perhaps deeper than you know, that leads both good and evil to a terrible, breathtaking, fierce and beautiful hell.
1 – “The Myths of Hell”
2 – “The Ache for Paradise”
3 – “Does Hell Really Last Forever?”
The Case of the Inflatable Brain
When the heads of two students at P.T. Sherman Elementary suddenly inflate to the size of watermelons, it’s up to 5th-grade detective Mac Dylan to solve the riddle. Was it something they ate? A rare disease?
Armed with his green notebook and trustworthy Silver Striker pen, Mac is ready to roll in his debut mystery.

Biblical, historical and reasonable
Believers will be challenged.
Skeptics will be encouraged.
And everyone in-between will be intrigued.[“A Beautiful Hell” trilogy]
At first, I found Nathan’s ideas to be a bit ‘far-fetched’
but I have to admit that it was my understanding of Hell that was incorrect and his is right down the middle.
[“A Beautiful Hell” #1: The Myths of Hell]
Like stepping into a fun house
You’ll be caught off balance, surprised, and taken on a thrilling adventure. And beneath it all swells the current of another, even bigger story.

Finally a fantasy book I can feel good about my children reading!
Actually causes the reader, kids included, the consider what it was really like when Bible ‘stories’ happened and then go on to deeper understanding. Brilliant.

 After signing books at The Crossing Church in Clermont, Florida (my brother's church), I taught a writing seminar based on "The Hero's Journey." Great questions afterwards with hopefully some good answers 🙂
