Rooted In Faith, Told With Purpose
We started this journey in 1973 with a call to ministry and a passion for writing, using words to point others to truth, hope, and meaning. With decades of experience, biblical conviction, and academic training (B.A., M.Div., D.Min.), our books reflect a Christ-centered worldview. This site shares our clean Western fiction—free of profanity and exploitation—and devotional resources for those seeking spiritual growth. Whether through stories or teaching, we aim to inspire, uplift, and leave a lasting impact.
Stories That Matter, Truths That Endure
We write to honor overlooked voices and share stories rooted in faith and dignity. From brave women and Black cowboys in Courageous Women and Black Cowboys of the Old West to resilient characters in You Picked the Wrong Stagecoach, our fiction reveals courage, conviction, and purpose. In Never Forget Eternity, we offer spiritual truths to renew hearts and communities. Whether through story or study, our goal is to inspire with honesty, depth, and hope.
Decades of Teaching, Now on the Page
With over 50 years in gospel ministry and deep academic grounding, Rik Danaielsen brings authenticity to every book. Whether teaching Scripture or crafting Western tales, his mission remains the same: to point readers to God’s grace and show how every life can be part of a greater story.
Written With Purpose
At Stories Rewritten, every word is anchored in biblical truth and historical integrity. From the dusty trail of the Old West to a timeless spiritual lesson, each story offers more than entertainment—it sparks transformation, cultivates courage, and nurtures enduring faith in a world that often forgets its foundation and deeper purpose.
Clean Reading, Meaningful Impact
Tired of stories that compromise values? So were we. That’s why each book in our collection is free from profanity or explicit content—and full of soul. Thoughtfully written, each story elevates character, challenges the heart, and leaves readers with something far richer than a plot twist: hope.
