About B. R. Bryan

B. R. Bryan has always been a lot like Elijah—fascinated by how things work, constantly tinkering with new ideas, and never afraid to ask the biggest questions possible. While there isn’t a matte teal shipping container in the backyard (yet), B. R. loves dreaming up the kind of grand adventures that keep readers on the edge of their seats and God at the center of the action.

Author of The Great Engine, book one of The Commons Adventures.

Why The Commons?

The Commons series is written with a specific mission: to equip kids with solid, biblical answers to the questions they have about their faith. Today’s kids are growing up in a world that is becoming increasingly hostile toward Christianity. From school hallways to TikTok influencers, they are being told that their faith isn’t logical. Studies show that children start asking hard questions about their faith around the age of 10. Sadly, they don’t always vocalize these questions. Often they allow them to fester in their mind until they become monster-sized doubts that threaten to rob them of their belief.

As a mother with a degree in theology and sixteen years of experience working with children, B. R. writes to give parents a way to be proactive in equipping kids to defend their faith. She also hopes her books will encourage young readers to know that there are brilliant, logical answers to even their toughest questions.
