Announcing the return of the Character Entertainment blog!

My first website in 2008 introduced Character Entertainment – Building Character Through Fiction. It presented books, movies, and music that were good for you. I spotlighted the life lessons that we learn through the stories and songs we enjoy, which are often overlooked.

As a Christian, I try to practice values of humility, self-sacrifice, compassion, acceptance, courage, generosity, and other traits modeled by Jesus Christ. I spotlight these same characteristics that I see demonstrated in fiction, because if we learn to practice the right habits, we can improve our lives and the lives of those around us. If we learn to recognize the positive morals that we’re already being taught by the media every day, we can become the kind of people we want to be. The ones who change the world around us for the better.

After my Character Entertainment site ended in 2013, I was offline for a couple of years, until I started a new site that focused strictly on my writing. I started the Packing Action blog, to talk about the kind of action I put into my stories. However … I just wasn’t that excited about discussing that. It’s fun to do and I do it well, but that doesn’t mean I want to talk about it much.

So I’m returning to my original blogging passion: Character Entertainment and the life lessons we can glean from stories. I hope you enjoy this renewed direction and that it becomes something fun and meaningful for your life.

Keep believing!
