Marc Schooley

Marc's background of education and experience includes philosophy, theology, Bible teaching, preaching, and fiction writing. In addition, Marc speaks from years of experience in the business world, both in the public and private sector.

Nominated for the top awards in Christian fiction, Marc also writes supernatural thrillers that plunge the lofty ideals of religion, society and history into the dog-eat-dog struggles of relatable men and women. In story as in life, figuring out how to live with those ideals often adds to the chaos.

Because that's the real part of the story.

Has it ever happened to you?

Feedback

"Marc doesn’t shy away from speaking about difficult issues. At the same time, he makes sure to explain his topics in ordinary terms. He's confident and at ease--he connects with the audience and draws them into his subject matter." (David J. Dyck, Chairman, Westman Bible Conference)
