My next scheduled book to be published in March 2027 is tentatively titled, The Creed: 35 Devotions for Understanding and Living the Authentic Christian Faith. I just turned the manuscript into the publisher, Whitaker House, on 02/27/26, two days before the due date of 03/01/26.

This year is the 1700th anniversary of one of Christianity’s most treasured confessions: The Nicene Creed.

I’ve been working hard over the last 6 months to research, write, and re-write (again and again) a devotional based upon The Creed.

I’ve invested over 400 hours of labor so far, and I must confess that this project has been uniquely meaningful to me.

In over three decades of writing—covering everything from medical and health topics to family and marriage ministry to novels and curricula—I’ve never experienced the combination of intellectual challenge and spiritual growth that this book has provided.

Wrestling with the theological depths of Christianity’s most enduring confession while keeping it accessible for modern believers from across Christian traditions has been both demanding and deeply rewarding.

The early response to the manuscript among endorsers and beta readers has been tremendously encouraging. I’ll post some of these over the next month or two.

What excites me most is how this book addresses a genuine need in today’s church. Too many believers struggle to articulate what they actually believe, while seekers or deconstructionists often reject distorted versions of Christianity they’ve encountered.

My hope and prayer is that this book will not only ground readers in the historic, biblical faith that has sustained believers for over 1,700 years but will lead them to live the creed in ways that transform both their walk with Jesus and their witness to others.

I believe The Creed represents the kind of substantive, accessible theological work that can serve the church for years to come. At least that’s my prayer.

By the way, if you’re interested in a preview of the content, I’ve posted parts of the book in a devotional, Discovering the Ancient Faith That Anchors Christianity A 47-Day Devotional to the Cross, that is posted for free on the YouVersion app.

Even though only posted for a month, it has already had over 3,000 subscribers from 76 countries (the top 10 are the US, Canada, Australia, UK, South Africa, Nigeria, New Zealand, India, Singapore, and the Philippines).

I hope it’s a blessing for you.
