I remember thinking about life as a nonbeliever. I'm hoping Christian readers will see the unbeliever's worldview and struggles, and that unbelievers will resonate with his questions but relate to him because he's a very upbeat character. The big challenge for me in writing in the first person is whether somebody wants to hang around with this character for 400 pages.
