The Ona Question

What would the version of you already safe, loved, and at peace in Heaven say to your suffering present-day self? This novel plays that question out fully. Melissa — whose marriage to James is explored in Worth Being Loved — encounters her future self, Ona, who draws her gently but honestly into the truths that faith has already revealed for use in our present-day struggles. Through their conversations, the novel also renders heaven itself: not as abstraction but as a place of genuine wonder, safety, and radiant wholeness. Ona is not a technique. She is a doorway — and what Melissa finds on the other side changes everything.

-In development. Fully written, in editing stage.

Upcoming Books

The Beloved Principles

At the center of every human struggle — every broken marriage, every addiction, every bout of depression and anxiety, every act of cruelty — is the same wound: the terror that we are not good enough to be loved. The Beloved Principles names this fear, traces its consequences across the full range of emotional and relational suffering, and points to the only answer that holds: God’s love received not merely as doctrine but as felt experience. Part psychology, part theology, entirely practical — this is the framework behind all the other books.

-In development. 3/4ths written.

Worth Being Loved

Every marriage — every one, without exception — is organized around a single unspoken question: Am I worth loving? The Beloved Marriage Model, built directly on the foundation of the Beloved Principles, traces how that question — answered well or poorly — shapes every argument, every season of intimacy, every moment of distance. Woven throughout is the story of Melissa and James, the fictional couple at the heart of the novel The Ona Question, whose marriage serves here as both narrative anchor and clinical illustration. Moving, practical, and deeply hopeful.
