Greetings from Chris
I believe stories can change the world. It's why I write.
After all, the gospel hangs on the thin, crimson thread of a story, preserved and shared for 2,000 years.
I tell stories, hoping one will scamper somewhere near the back door of your heart and knock. I hope that one day I will write something that has the impact of the story Nathan told David that revealed the truth in a story. David was incensed at the injustice of the story. He was looking in a mirror.
I grew up listening to stories told in the smoke-filled kitchen of my grandmother, my uncles smoking Camels, their elbows on their knees, hunched forward and spinning a yarn. I can close my eyes and still hear them, still hear the laughter, and still feel the exhilaration of a story well-told.
Stories can change the world because stories reach the heart. I hope you find a good one among those I have written.

Featured Interview
FamilyFiction Magazine recently featured an interview with Chris exploring the creation of his novel Lifemark.
"I was arrested by the courage of the birth mother to choose life in the midst of a hard situation. I hope the film and book cause someone to choose life. I think this is the only book I’ve ever written where I feel like words on a page might save a life."
