David Johnson has been with me since the beginning of my writing career. And honestly, he might have been with me longer than that. His character was always intended to be a "window character," meaning that his view of the world (the Miracleverse) is the same view that the audience has. David started as the atypical troubled kid with a terrible past. What I've tried to do is present that atypical character is a very unique way, from the Christian perspective. David Johnson wants to have a relationship with the Lord. Sometimes he thinks he doesn't, but he really does. So then what would constitute "troubled kid" from this perspective. What would ultimately trouble someone who wants to be with God, who wants to become a strong warrior of faith?
The series presented here a new twist on the original, Union Cross version of David Johnson. Make no mistake, though. This is not a Union Cross story. This really isn't even a David Johnson story. This story is about one simple fact: Despite your sins, God will not only forgive you, He can use you.
Hope to see you in August!
