A Collection of 3:27 Life Stories

Changing the Narrative:

This series wasn’t part of my plan.

One Sunday afternoon after church, I laid down for a quick nap. When I woke up, the idea was just… there. Not a vague thought, but a fully formed plan:

A children’s book series about apologetics for preteens. Rooted in real-life questions. Written to help kids wrestle honestly with faith, doubt, and identity.

And that’s how I knew it wasn’t my idea at all.

Because anyone who knows me knows:

I’m not a writer.
I’m definitely not a grammar expert.
Spelling? Autocorrect and I are on a first-name basis.

The clarity I woke up with didn’t come from my own head. It came from my Leader, my Provider, my Supporter. And the more I sat with it, the more the pieces fell into place.

What the Series Is

It’s a collection of children’s books inspired by real stories of faith, doubt, and discovery.
Each book blends engaging storytelling with a parent guide to open honest conversations about belief, doubt, and life’s big questions.

Here’s how it works:

I interview real parents listening deeply to their stories.
I use AI to help craft those stories into fiction with heart, humor, and truth.
Each story is reimagined for preteens in a way that is relatable, hopeful, and rooted in reality.

When AI Tapped Out

Early in the process, I decided to test-drive AI as a brainstorming partner. I fed in a moment from Brandon’s childhood to help shape a scene… and the tool froze.

The message? “Content too graphic to generate.”

The truth? It wasn’t dramatized. It was simply honest. A glimpse into something too many kids have lived through, the kind of story we often hesitate to name out loud.

That moment reminded me of something important:
You can’t algorithm your way through grief.
You can’t automate compassion.
And you can’t leave out the hard parts of someone’s story just because they’re difficult to write.

This series won’t be dark. But it will be real. And more than anything, it will be hopeful.

Where We Are Now

Right now, I have one book drafted, my story.
I’m working on Brandon’s, finding a way to tell it with both honesty and care. And I’m praying for the next story to emerge, maybe from someone who’s doing fine today, but quietly carries a past they rarely talk about.

If that’s you, or someone you know, I’m listening. Carefully. Prayerfully. No pressure.

Because this isn’t just about writing books.
It’s about changing the narrative.
