This blog is about walking through through the desert periods of our lives. I call it walking through the wilderness. God sometimes leads His children through a wilderness experience to get them to something higher. The wilderness is a terrifying place, a place where comfort is hard to find, provision is scarce, where nothing is certain. Nothing, that is, except Him.

Pre-Release Review of The Wilderness Companion

The Wilderness Companion will be released next week and available for purchase.  I will post a link here on the blog for those who wish to order a copy. I am really excited about comments and feedback I've gotten from friends who have kindly read over it ahead of time for me, and to my Editor for editing. Without his help, this book would not be what it is.

Thank you, Brian, for your unselfish service to God's people and to your fellow servant.

Here is the first pre-release review:


“And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” (Mat 11:12) Have you ever wondered what this “violent force” looks like? The Wilderness Companion is the living example of such violence lived out. This book is about the violent seizure of the Kingdom of God, and the events that surround refusing to let go at any cost.

I believe this book is essential in preparing you for your own wilderness journeys. It is a straightforward and honest look at real experiences in the wilderness in all of its humanity and spirituality.  It is commonly said, “Experience is the best teacher”, but I tell you, “Other people’s experiences are the best instruction, but you still have to do the lesson!”  Wise counsel and encouragement in your journey await you in this book of the events of the wilderness experiences of Glynda Lomax.

The founders of the Biosphere projects in the Arizona desert set out to create the perfect ecosystem for natural life to thrive and be studied. A curious thing happened in the decades that followed, as healthy trees growing in ideal conditions began to fall over by themselves. Though the trees had no disease and grew remarkably faster than their wild counterparts, because they had no wind in their protected environment, they became top-heavy and never developed roots.

The winds of change are blowing across America and the world. Right now the Spirit of God is readying the people of God, because a storm is coming. This book is a tool in God’s hand to speak into your wilderness experience, and to “flesh out” an example of what a wilderness experience looks and feels like in our modern world. The focus of this book is not upon Glynda or her struggles, not even on what good spiritual fruit it produces, but on our Wilderness Companion: the Lord Jesus Christ Himself.
