Robert, describe yourself for our visitors.
I’ve been writing books for the past 14 years. My first novel for young readers, A Way Through the Sea, came out in 1994. Before that, I’d been a newspaper editor, reporter, assistant pastor, and advertising writer. I went to school at Simpson Bible College in San Francisco, where I met my wife, Ronda. We have three young adult kids scattered around the country. We live in the Pacific Northwest, in Idaho. Ronda works at a local pediatric dentist office, and we enjoy traveling together whenever we can. We attend church in a nearby city. I also love the outdoors and sailing when I get a chance, working on my old boat, and walking the hills with my dog Freckles. She’s a cocker spaniel/sheltie, but getting a little old.

WILDCATS IN THE HOUSE
by Steve Russo and Gabi Russo
High School Musical is a wildly popular movie among the tweener set, with it’s energetic dances and toe-tapping tunes. And most viewers had their favorite characters in the movie.
However, Mr. Russo maintains that there is more than just dances and songs to learn from the movie. It addresses such valuable lessons as peer pressure, being yourself, acceptance, and teamwork. It also shows you what the Bible has to say about each of these situations.

Brian Michael Zick asks, “What do teens want from Christian fiction? Or perhaps the better question is: Do teens read Christian fiction?”
Brian and a friend asked twenty-five teens at the Catalyst, a skateboard ministry and youth group at New Hope Church in Sierra Vista, to answer his second question. They also asked “Why not?” to those who answered negatively.
