James Finke is a Christian author, apologist, and founder of Living Sacrifice Books, an independent Christian publishing house. Before devoting himself to writing and ministry, he spent more than 18 years in corporate America managing insurance portfolios and assessing risk. That experience informs his practical approach to questions of faith: examine the evidence, think clearly, and take the conclusions seriously.

Through his Christianity Uncomplicated books and daily faith-building videos, James helps everyday readers explore the case for God, Jesus, the Bible, and the Gospel. His Dear Judas novels bring those questions into contemporary Christian fiction, pairing accessible apologetics with stories of spiritual conflict, faith, and the consequences of silence. His published website biography reports that his books have appeared in multiple languages and reached readers in 15 countries, and that his social platforms have more than 175,000 followers.

James Finke is a Christian author, apologist, and founder of Living Sacrifice Books. His work brings together two paths that are not often found in the same author biography: more than 18 years managing large insurance portfolios in corporate America and a calling to make Christian belief understandable to ordinary people. The habits he developed in risk assessment – asking what is known, what is assumed, and what follows from the evidence – now shape the way he writes about faith.

James began Christianity Uncomplicated as a quarantine project in 2020. It grew into a publishing and online ministry focused on clear explanations of the Christian faith. In his nonfiction books, he takes on foundational questions: whether God exists, who Jesus is, why the Bible can be trusted, and what the Gospel means. His aim is to make substantial ideas approachable without asking readers to set aside honest questions or careful thought.

That same interest in evidence and consequence carries into James’s fiction. The Dear Judas series follows Tommy Finch, a skeptical medical device salesman whose confidence in a purely material account of life is shaken by a medical crisis. Dear Judas, the first novel, places the search for truth inside a story of faith, relationships, and an unseen spiritual conflict. In Still Judas, Tommy is a believer, but must confront the personal cost of remaining silent when another person needs to hear about Jesus. Together, the books use suspense and spiritual warfare to make questions of eternity and everyday obedience feel immediate.

The Christianity Uncomplicated series moves from the evidence for God to the identity of Jesus, the trustworthiness of Scripture, and the meaning of the Gospel. Each title approaches a large question through clear reasoning and relatable examples, helping readers build a foundation they can use in their own conversations about faith. The fiction follows a related aim through story: to bring belief, doubt, spiritual conflict, and choices about witness into the lives of recognizable characters.

James founded Living Sacrifice Books as an independent Christian publishing house. According to the biography published on his website, his books have been published in multiple languages and distributed in 15 countries. His daily faith-building videos and social channels reach more than 175,000 followers across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube under @authorjamesfinke.

James lives in Connecticut with his wife and four children. He is available for conversations about apologetics, Christian fiction, spiritual warfare, faith at work, and sharing the Gospel in ordinary life. More about his books, beliefs, and media appearances is available at authorjamesfinke.com.
