He's worked on An Unnamed Adaption for two years before finishing, because his only objective is to have people enthused about reading it and to take a journey through its pages. After receiving feedback from friends and family members to find out what works and what doesn't in writing, he revised the book for nearly six months. After getting a grade on an essay from college professors, no matter what it was, he made sure to scrutinize it until he was left satisfied. The tiniest detail meant everything! He started writing An Unnamed Adaption, in a college class, when he daydreamed about a hero gaining strength and intelligence at exponential rates and what it would do to the body. Thus the story was born. He thought he could write a superhero novel during his free time. It certainly took up a lot of free time, but he says he has never enjoyed a process so much! This book is meant to be read by your creativity and imagination. It's meant to make you think. He's wrote it in hopes that you will love to love, love to hate, and hate to hate the characters. This is his gift to you as you have given him the gift of reading it. Andy resides in flux--living in Bozeman for the winter and Kalispell for the summer. He's a writer by hobby and a runner by trade. If he's not running, he's writing. Occasionally, he likes to socialize...only when he's not running or writing!
How 7 Transformational Events in 1776 Paved the Way for Today's Post-Christian West
With dizzying social transformations in everything from gender to social justice, it may seem like there's never been a more tumultuous period in history. But a single year in the late 18th century saw a number of influential transformations—or even revolutions—that changed the social trajectory of the Western world. By understanding how those events influenced today's cultural landscape, Christians can more effectively bear witness to God's truth in a post-Christian age.
In Remaking the World, Andrew Wilson highlights 7 major developments from the year 1776—globalization, the Enlightenment, the Industrial Revolution, the Great Enrichment, the American Revolution, the rise of post-Christianity, and the dawn of Romanticism—and explains their relevance to social changes happening today. Carefully examining key documents and historical figures, Wilson demonstrates how a monumental number of political, philosophical, economical, and industrial changes in the year of America's founding shaped the modern West into a "WEIRDER" society: Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic, Ex-Christian, and Romantic. This thoroughly researched yet accessible book offers a unique historical perspective on modern views of family, government, religion, and morality—giving Christians the historical lens they need to understand today's post-Christian trends and respond accordingly.
