Author David Griffith’s New Book, “Road to Certainty,” Takes Readers Along the Author’s Powerful and Personal Journey of Faith Exploration


Clio, CA, January 26, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– David Griffith, who was born in Pueblo, Colorado, in 1938, has completed his new book, “Road to Certainty”: a compelling book that invites readers to view the world through the eyes of the author as he embarks on a journey of discovery.

Author David Griffith was born into a family transitioning from pioneer life to the modern world, and he loved the mountains. He was given faith as a child but became preoccupied with activity. After graduating high school in 1957, he began work as an apprentice at the Colorado Fuel and Iron steel mill. He became fascinated with poetry, which led to education at Pueblo Junior College, graduating in 1960. In 1962, he graduated from the University of Colorado with a degree in philosophy. After completing military service, he attended law school at the University of Colorado and graduated in 1967. He practiced law, specializing in plaintiff’s trial practice, for the next forty years. As his trial experience progressed, many cases led to deeper scientific inquiry. His first marriage ended in divorce.

Later, he fell in love and married his court reporter. When both sets of children were raised, they purchased a ranch as a mountain getaway but ended up fully committed to ranch life. David practiced law twice as hard to pay for growing ranch commitments. They loved ranch life, but in 2007, they retired and moved to Sea Ranch, California. In 2014, they moved to Clio, California, and are now members of the Sierra Christian Church in Beckworth, California.

David writes, “It is not automatic. Being born into a Christian home, being a living representative of a long line of dedicated Christians does not make you a Christian. It is the decision to trust and follow Christ that makes a Christian. One of the forces motivating me to write down these thoughts I’ve heard summarized this way: God has put enough into this world to make faith in Him a reasonable thing, but He has left enough out to make it impossible to acquire such faith by reason alone. So we all start with questioning.”

He continues, “If God exists, who in his right mind would not want to know Him? That is automatic. If there is a God, there is built-in longing for relationship with Him. For some, this means lifelong searching to know what is the truth. Being born in a Christian home adds fuel to searching, but answers are not automatic. Perhaps for me finding truth was more difficult because every positive answer was accompanied by the feeling that I was just believing what I wanted to believe or giving in to what I had been taught to believe. I wanted truth, not wish fulfillment.”

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, David Griffith’s new book offers inspiration and solidarity to readers on their faith journeys.

Readers can purchase “Road to Certainty” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Ann Aschauer’s ‘Satan’s Worst Nightmare’ Documents a Christian Halloween Reimagining

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Author Ann Aschauer has released "Satan’s Worst Nightmare," a book built around a real outreach event two Michigan women created by reworking Halloween into a Christian production. According to the announcement, the expanded title reads "Satan’s Worst Nightmare: A Testimony of Recognizing, Fighting and Winning Today’s Spiritual Warfare" and it follows two small-town mothers, identified as Annie and Kelly, during the initial development of what the publisher calls a potentially unprecedented theatrical work: the story of Christ’s Resurrection told from Satan’s point of view.

The book arrives from Covenant Books, a Christian publishing house, and comes after Aschauer’s earlier novels including "Counselor," "Vision," and "Sparrows," as well as her prior nonfiction publications. Aschauer has a background in theater, playwriting and drama education, and taught middle school English and drama, experience the publisher says shaped how she reconstructed the obstacles the two women faced in building the event.

The narrative frames the project as spiritual warfare in a literal sense — prayer, obstacles, and what the release calls attacks and opposition standing between the women and a finished outreach. "This story shows that God can use anyone to do remarkable things that bring Him glory," Aschauer said in the announcement, adding that the original event became a testimony to everyone who helped build it. "I pray readers will see their own potential to make a difference in ways they never imagined possible," she said.

The book is being sold through bookstores and online retailers including Amazon, Apple’s iTunes Store, Google Play and Barnes and Noble, per the publisher.

What the announcement doesn’t specify is how the original event has evolved since — whether "Satan’s Worst Nightmare" is still staged annually in the women’s community, or whether the book is meant to document a one-time production. That detail is left to readers to find on their own.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we see Aschauer’s career trajectory as instructive for faith-based creators working in theatrical spaces. Her progression from drama educator to playwright to novelist reveals how technical storytelling craft and spiritual conviction can reinforce each other. By teaching middle school drama, she developed an intuitive understanding of how audiences connect with narrative—not through sermon, but through character, conflict, and transformation. That foundation shapes how she approaches faith narratives: not as didactic messages, but as dramatic experiences. Her earlier novels like "Counselor" and "Vision" suggest an author learning to weave theological themes into structured plots. With "Satan’s Worst Nightmare," Aschauer applies those hard-won skills to document a real community event, transforming grassroots ministry into publishable testimony. For Christian creators, her arc demonstrates that investing in craft—understanding how stories actually move people—strengthens rather than dilutes faith-centered work.

Author Releases Novel About First Responder’s Life After 9/11 at No Cost

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Author Erin Strong is offering her novel "She Never Left Ground Zero: A Novel of Courage, Love, and the Hidden Cost of 9/11" as a free download through September 30, according to the announcement. No registration, email address, purchase, subscription, or review is required, and coincides with the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

The novel is fiction but draws on the real experience of an NYPD officer, per the announcement. It centers on Sofia Vega, an NYPD officer whose work amid the smoke and debris in the aftermath leads to lasting consequences she and her family must face. Strong has said she wanted to write about what happened to first responders and their families after press coverage of the attacks faded — a theme that echoes a broader body of anniversary-year 9/11 literature, including nonfiction essay collections and survivor accounts published or reissued around the same milestone.

According to Strong, "I wanted to tell a deeply personal story about what happened after the television cameras moved on." "Many first responders and their families continued living with the consequences of September 11 for years. This novel honors their courage, their sacrifices, and the people who loved them through it all."

The free download is available at sheneverleftgroundzero.com. The book will also remain for sale on Amazon and other retailers after the promotional window closes. Strong’s team can be reached through the same website or by phone.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we see Strong’s September timing as a textbook example of anniversary marketing strategy. Major commemorative dates like the 25th anniversary of 9/11 generate enormous search volume and media attention—precisely when potential readers are already thinking about the subject matter. By anchoring a free promotion to this peak-interest window, authors capture visibility they’d need to spend significantly on advertising to achieve otherwise. The counterintuitive logic: giving away the book for free during high-traffic periods can actually drive more long-term sales than traditional paid campaigns, because it builds audience reach, generates word-of-mouth momentum, and establishes the title in readers’ minds before the promotional window closes. When the book returns to paid status in October, those who downloaded it free become natural candidates for follow-up engagement—reviews, recommendations, and future purchases. It’s a calculated play on consumer psychology and search behavior that extends the book’s commercial lifespan well beyond September.
