For Future Writings, wade-thomas.com

Since my novel came out earlier this year, I’ve been maintaining a web site that will house all my future blogs, short free fiction pieces, and other online writings, while also being a place people can here about any future books. That web site’s address is below. I’m sorry for taking so long to explain...

Nightmare and Coffee

*Part 1 of a serial story of a Christian with a problem.It would be an exaggeration to say that Grant felt like a kid sitting there in front of the coffee shop, trying to feel less weird about all of this. But it wouldn’t be far off the mark. Had he actually been himself as...

The End of Roe: Celebration Without Qualification

Imagine a brother in Christ saying in 1865, just as the Civil War was ending and chattel slavery was taking its dying breaths, “You had better have a plan for all these slaves before you celebrate the end of slavery.” How much moral credibility would you give that statement? Right.  When a Christian in 2022...

Some Father’s Day Thoughts on Children

The world, at least the world currently clamoring for my attention here in 2022, a world sorely in need of the peace and forgiveness that come only through Christ Jesus, sees children merely as a debit. They cost. They take time and energy thought. They require some of what we have, what we earn, what...

It depicts a creation afflicted by the moral failure of Adam and Eve in Eden, humans who house evil spirits that Jesus can expel, and “sons of God” who interact with God...

The Christian Rift of the Last Few Years

A rift has been felt within Biblical/conservative/evangelical Christianity the last 5-6 years. Brothers and sisters, pastors and theologians and public Christian voices, have felt a gap where 8 or 10 years ago there wasn't one. In many cases these people subscribe to the same confessional statements (Westminster Confession of Faith, Baptist Faith & Message, Apostle's...

Debut Novel

My first novel should be coming out later this year from Stone Table Books, an imprint of Wipf & Stock. Details to come on my new site, https://www.wade-thomas.com. “I WAS HERE WHEN THE WORLD WAS WET…” On a summer morning in 1892, the Massachusetts village of Sunbury awakes to find two newly buried bodies unearthed...

Parenting and Standards

One of the wars I'll have to wage until the Lord calls me home is against a cold, rigorous, contemptuous sort of legalism that the sinful parts of my old heart want to employ in parenting. I want to have standards and then maintain a clear sense of discontent when those standards are not met....
