Writing and thirsting for righteousness and love for the planet Earth.
My story with God
I've gave my life to the Lord over 30 years ago. There have been times when I tried to get back on the throne so it isn't always a smooth and straight ahead journey. My life changed fairly drastically (again) about 18 months ago:
In September of 2006 I awoke one morning at two o'clock. Partially asleep, I had the feeling that I had experienced a dream or else heard a small still voice tell me to write a book about evolution, a topic I knew almost nothing about. In the morning when I awoke fully, the experience was still vivid in my memory banks. I asked the Lord if he had indeed asked me to write a book about Evolution. That small still voice said - "And when you're done with that, I want you to go after Harry Potter and the sexual revolution." Sounded like a yes to me.
My personal dreams of becoming a writer had been abandoned years ago. Despite my fear of failure and my ignorance concerning the subject matter (I know you are supposed to write about what you know best), I decided to pursue the matter. If God had really spoken to me, I was not going to drag my feet and not even check it out. After researching one book dealing with evolution, I knew that I had been called to battle. Despite holding down a full time job, I threw myself into the effort and did more research as I begin to weave a foundation around a love story. Most of the first section of the book is typical of a young adult romance novel. Then I threw enough facts into the story to present most of the basic and pertinent information dealing with the flaws of Darwinism and the controversy surrounding it. I tried to balance the science lesson with a equal doses of humor, romance, and scripture.
Other stuff about me:
I have written seven novels so far and have formed my own company - Sword of the Spirit Publishing to produce them for public consumption. I try not to write fluffy little stories with entertainment value but rather edifying works that entertain, educate, and encourage.

Hello Donald, or would you like me to call you Don. What an interesting person you are to find on this website. I would be delighted to be a friend of yours.
I noted that you like to write and also have a book published. I just took a quick look on your other websites and decided that I should read a chapter from your book. Looks very interesting.
I work just 1 day a week in a Christian book shop which is part of the church I go to. I love it as the shop doesn't only sell books but also sells many different bibles, cd's, videos and gifts.
I wish you much joy and happiness walking along Gods path which he has made for you, stay happy, God Bless, Lorraine.

Hello Mr. Parker,
You have a very interesting story and am so happy to hear that you listened to the Lord and went ahead and stepped out of your comfort zone and published a book that you had to idea on the subject. Isn't it amazing how God works, if we only listen and not be afraid. I have to work on this myself. I have a lot of fear of the unknown, but you give me the confidence to do it. Have a Blessed Day and may your journey be Blessed as well.

Hi, how's the writing going? I han't written in several days...been way too busy. My youngest daughter had her fifth birthday a few days ago and since then we've been sick with a stomach bug that my husband brought home from work. So far both he and I have been sick as well as 3 of our children (we have 9.) However, I am well along in the book that I am writing, having finished two chapters (rewritten) and having two ready to rewrite and working steadily on the other four chapter (at least before this busy week, LOL!) So, it's coming. I love creation/evolution (I am a firm creationist) so I would be interested in knowing just how it's going, what your covering and so forth. God bless you, it's for HIM I live, Anna
Thanks for the add! I'm also a computer scientist, but I don't write unless you count blogging irregularly! I also like Harry Potter! But I think we can still be friends.
hi Parker
Sorry for not be in touch for last 3-4 days. Actually our head office team came for evaluation. i goes well. you know, my cheif offered me full financial support to go for Theology studies. He said Michael i always noticed that you are smart and have talent. you should not waste it. when he hears that i want to go for Theology, he feel very happy in addition he said, if Organization is will not support, i will support you from my pocket, either i have to go for a debt. I am glad that God gave me such a beautiful chance. But now, i am confusing in earthly things (leaving job, going for 4 years, all friends, money). Please pray for me. As he said also that when you will come back i will give a higher post.
Please Parker help me through prayers
No, I don't have a critique group, do you? I bet you are exhausted. I am sorry. It's hard, I can imagine. I have trouble just finding time to write so I end up doing it when I should be sleeping. We have nine children that I homeschool, plus there is the house, cooking, cleaning, shopping, problems that occur, and...well, you get the idea. But God says that in our weakness His strength is made perfect and THAT is what I am counting on. God bless you, I will lift you up in prayer today. Anna
hi,
Well, there's Tristan, 19; Natasha, 18; Matthew, 16; Samuel, 15; Keenan, 10; Tatiana (Tia), 8; Nicholas, 6; Nadia, 5; Jonathan Joshua, 2. Matthew is living with an uncle in NC so that he can go to school up there, but I homeschool the others. We do stay busy, but they are my greatest blessings. Thanks for the heads-up on the sites. I will certainly check them out. God bless you. Anna
AS WE WAIT UPON THE LORD HE RESTORES OUR SOULS. I PRAY FOR YOU TODAY THAT AS YOU LISTEN TO THIS VIDIO THAT GOD WILL RESTORE AND GIVE YOU NEW STRENGTH TODAY
Thank you Donald for your friends request, I hope that we shall learn from one another great things about the Lord our God. May God be with you. Brother Ian
Hi and thank you for adding me as a friend. That is great the Lord led you to write. I too enjoy writing. I hope your day has been filled with His blessing and peace. Love in the Saviour, Gill
You have my prayers, Michael,
By the way, in America to call someone by their last name is often a sign of disrespect. Please call me Don.
Take care!

Yes, He is. Praise God. we are a spiritual people. We have as a nation always seached for the metaphysical things. So I am not surprised. It is also true that we are a nation steeped in superstition. In fact, our problem is the reverse of that of the west. It questions everything outside the sensory reality. In India, it goes unsaid that there is a world beyond our ken. So we acceptt everything. Israel's tragedy was that she killed all her prohets. India's is that she worships ALL of them. Be that as it may, the Lord is here and working. I know many people who have to the Lord from all kiinds of backgrounds. And it is not so much christianity as it is the Christ for us. we love HIM.
Hi Don on the other side of the USA from what is turning out to be a very snowy year in Vt. Hope all is well. I am going to check out your links to get to know you more. God bless for noW. Bob B

Thanks for adding me as your friend, I'll love to read your book once id done !! For many people, me included, reading christian books and novels is an interesting method of learning in a fun way. Here in Belgium it is somehow complcated to find novels in french, so most of my readings (like Frank Peretti books, the Left Behind series, etc); I borrowed from american friends. if you know of other interesting novelist, please let me know the names to find a way the have them sent from America. Blessings and keep in touch.
Hi. Don. Thank you for your guidance. I'll do it slowly and if it is not to be a burden for you, I hope you will assist me with another guidance when I'm lost. It's nice to have a writer as a friend. May God always lead you all the way to be the best writer in Him. Thank you again. JBU. From Indonesia with love in Christ: Christy Gabriel.
