[Spiritual] Food for Thought: Collection 1

By D. L. Dunnaville

Articles and insights to chew on; and this from a Kingdom perspective! This book is a collection of 12 teachings which originally accompanied an online video series entitled “[Spiritual] Food for Thought”. This written text is intended to be a devotional guide of sorts. Readers are encouraged to chew on, Bible study, research, pray about and discuss all content laid out herein. Please do not settle for the author’s word on a matter but earnestly seek the LORD to discern what His final Word would be. Most of this content resulted from daily reflection on everyday parts of life. Time was taken to step back and listen for anything God might be trying to communicate through the smallest things in life as well as the tallest. All who call upon the LORD and desire a close relationship with Him are encouraged to do the same...to the greatest extent possible. And be sure to have fun in the process!

D. L. Dunnaville

D. L. Dunnaville currently resides in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas. He has a degree in Airway Science and is a veteran of the United States Air Force. Formerly an atheist as a single, Dunnaville is now a dedicated family man and devoted follower of YHVH, the One True God revealed to mankind in the person of Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ). More of Dunnaville’s material may be found online in the form of video teachings as well as his first novel, Rescuca: Savior of the Realm. The Rescuca series is a Christian allegory which goes through the Bible, retelling the story of God’s creation from a very “distinct” perspective; a viewpoint with a twist. Through his writing, Dunnaville hopes to encourage others to seek and trust God, and those who have strayed from God’s path to reexamine their lives and return to the fold. Dunnaville has a passion for evangelism, and when he shares his faith with others, he aims to focus on God’s great capacity for love, forgiveness, reconciliation and redemption.
