About

 

Author Jeremy D Vance 


    Jeremy’s relationship with Jesus Christ began at six years old when he put my faith in Him during an altar call at a local church’s event for children. 

     He’s wrestled with doubts and other struggles in his forty-eight years. God has carried and been carrying him through each one. Jeremy’s really thankful for His presence and grace all these years. He owes my life to God for paying for his sins on the cross through Christ’s death. In doing so, He brought him forgiveness and has given him an established hope in entering heaven through His blood.

     After graduating from seminary and being licensed as a pastor, he served two separate parishes for a time. As the needs of his family grew, he turned to writing which he has been doing over three years. He started out in speculative fiction, crafting stories for children and teens, one of which was published by Spaceports and Spidersilk. Recently God moved him to write fiction for the adult inspirational (Christian) market. Now he’s writing about an overworked pastor slowly losing the closeness of his relationship with the Lord due to the demands of the ministry. Jeremy hopes the book will encourage those looking to be pastors as well as those currently in ministry. 

     By all my writings, may you be encouraged to cling to Jesus everyday as you fix your eyes on His coming kingdom.

Our Hope In the Midst of Trouble by Jeremy D Vance

       Everyday we deal with the world’s trouble. We may experience the loss of loved ones or our savings might dwindle from unexpected bills. We can grieve or be angry for awhile, but do we allow these troubles to lead us to despair? Do we drown in our feelings without any hope whatsoever?      When trouble comes to us believers, we are given the opportunity to focus our faith on Jesus. In the above passage, the news of Christ’s imminent death confused and saddened the disciples. Yet Jesus wanted them to know that though trouble exists in the the world, He has in fact overcome it. Though death exists, it has been overcome. Though pain exists, it has been overcome. What an assurance! We don’t need to fear the world’s troubles, because Jesus has overcome them all and the power behind them.       Believers, let’s not fear hardships anymore. Let them come for we rest our faith in Jesus.

When God Derails Your Plans by Jeremy D Vance

        All this time, I believed I would be writing speculative fiction. After another period of distraction, I read about the church at Ephesus in Revelation 2:1-7. This inspired an idea that morphed from time travel to a contemporary inspirational fiction story. The story just didn’t fit with what I was writing so it became what it is now.       God has a way of shifting our life’s plans when we least expect. Instead of being directed towards children or teens, the story is geared towards adults. This looks like it’ll be a permanent move as well. So….the website will be changing soon. God knows what He is doing and He will continue to direct my future as I trust in Him. All glory to Him.  Jeremy D Vance

One Life’s Purpose by Jeremy D Vance

       The pursuit of money and fame can be a big lure for you to write a book. If you set this as your purpose, you most likely will become discouraged and even give up when it is discovered that writing and publishing a book is genuinely difficult. Popularity and cash do not come from simply putting your words on a page.       In my opinion, you must find a deeper purpose for crafting stories or even non-fiction. Such a purpose will be the rudder that keeps your writing on course in the storms of self-doubt and rejection.      My purpose in writing speculative fiction for children and teens has been to help them walk through life’s difficult moments as well as to prompt thinking about deeper issues. After my period of distraction, I had to re-examine and renew my purpose so that I may continue on this epic writing journey. Once firmly in my grasp again, I look forward to the future laid before me and so  Whether I reach a few...
