Towers of Light

Allen Brokken pt 1

Everyone loves a good story. We all enjoy taking a break from reality and just relaxing, being absorbed into a story that provides that “feel good” sense of everything works out in the end, right?

How much more, when we can spend our time with our children and get the whole family immersed into the story?  Especially stories that keep their imagination going and still provides insight into Godly living, without hitting them over the head with your Bible.  Amen!  Don’t shout me down when I’m preaching good!

My guest today has been able to bridge that gap and has found that he not only has helped his children discover the greatness of God in their life, but he is helping countless families to discover and to hold onto their Faith, even in these troubling times we live in today. Amen!

Allen Brokken started to create imaginary stories for his small children that involved their stuffed animals. But he wanted to create stories that would reinforce God’s Goodness, His protection and provision, etc., in a way that his children could understand and receive that seed into their hearts, that the Lord could take and grow as they grew up as well.

He has a series called, “Towers of Light” that has five books in the series right now… and folks, you need to check these books out. I know you are going to get a lot out of this interview.

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Allen Brokken?”

Tell us how you first came to the idea of writing these books?  What was your purpose in this?

Did you know you were going to write a series or did you just start off with one…and then you decided to continue the story in further books?

How old were your children when you first started to discover this ability to use stories to teach your children these Godly principles?

These books were designed for homeschooling your children, correct?

So, are these school books or entertainment books – or both?

Can you tell us about your beta readers? I found this interesting…

When did you realize you were really onto something that other parents wanted to pass on to their children, by using your books?

How long does it take you to create one of these books

Folks, if you have small children or small grandchildren that you would love to introduce to the principles of Faith in God, you cannot do better than Allen Brokken’s books in the “Towers of Light” Christian family series.

Just drop down into the show notes below and click the links right there. Amen!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
