Chad Pettit: Soldier, Podcaster, Fiction Author (#113)

Exploring Fiction, Fantasy and more as a Christian Author

Author Chad Pettit grew up lost in the world of fantasy fiction but alienated from a knowledge of God. With no real direction in his life, he shipped out for basic training twelve days after high school. He continued down a path of sin and destruction through two combat tours to Iraq, but then God pulled back the blinders, and he met his Lord and Savior.

One passion that never left him was his love for fiction, and in 2013, he went back to school and earned his degree in English. This helped him develop his craft, spending long hours pounding away at the keys until his battles with guilt, fear, and shame came alive on the page.

Now he is on a mission to pull back the curtain on spiritual warfare and show others how to overcome trials through faith and start living their best lives for God.

“Stories allow us to gain empathy for other people. They allow us to understand flaws in our culture. They also allow us to understand the best parts of our culture.” - Chad Pettit on the power of story
