“Is he—quite safe?” I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion” – Susan
“If there’s anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking, they’re either braver than most or else just silly.” – Mrs. Beaver
“Then he isn’t safe?” – Lucy
“Safe? . . . Who said anything about safe? Course he isn’t safe. But he’s good. He’s the King I tell you.” – Mr. Beaver
From The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C.S. Lewis
I started writing fiction because I was entranced with the true story of the Bible. I've always said that God is the first, and best author.
As far as us humans go, I was fascinated by the way C.S. Lewis was able to craft stories that were moving, thought provoking, infused with spiritual truths, and made me want to be a stronger man of faith.
I aim to craft my stories after these examples.
It’s also inspiring to see other types of creatives doing the same in other realms. I loved the message, the mission, and the aesthetic of Dangerous But Good since the first time I came across their gear.
When they invited me to become an ambassador for their company, I was honored to represent a company whose mission aligns with my own so perfectly. It’s a beautiful thing to find others who serve the same Kingdom, who have been adopted into the same family, who have undertaken the same mission.
We are the branches, and Christ is the vine. Apart from Him, we accomplish nothing.

“He’ll be coming and going . . . One day you’ll see him and another you won’t. He doesn’t like being tied down . . . He’ll often drop in. Only you mustn’t press him. He’s wild, you know. Not like a tame lion.” – Mr. Beaver
