"I read and ask myself: What does a word actually mean – besides what we think it means? What does a text, such as the Hebrew Bible, Christian Bible, actually mean? Is the Bhagavad Gita myth or actual? Well, my years in Seminary taught me lots of things I never knew as a churchgoer but one of the most important to a writer is that no text is set in stone. Something I can testify to from my years as a publisher and even as a journalist where the news changes in a daily show."

"The New Star outshone everything else in the sky, what if it called a mystical team to a sacred journey with inner-and-outer consequences during King Herod the Great’s tumultuous reign? And they are still working together in the 21st century with the prime directive of generous allowing, diversity, and time-travel. Fantasy? You decide, the author calls it educated imagination."
