Writing is an art. As with any art, to be valuable it must serve a valuable purpose. My purpose in being an author is to bring value and goodness to the lives of others. The greatest goodness is found in the One who defines goodness: God – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit – our Creator, our Redeemer, and our Sanctifier. If my efforts can help spread some of God’s goodness around, I will have accomplished my purpose.
