    Bren Marrick Author of Dicks I’ve Met Online | Exploring Self-Discovery Through Uncomfortable Experiences I didn’t set out to tell a story like this. I set out to tell the truth—about what happens when the life you built no longer fits, the quiet courage it takes to open doors you thought would stay closed, and the unexpected humor you find while figuring it out. At a certain point, I realized my life had been shaped more by habit than choice. So I started paying attention—to what I wanted, what I avoided, and what I kept explaining away. Writing became a way to look at things honestly, without judgment, and with a little more compassion for every version of myself along the way. That reflection became my book, Dicks I’ve Met Online: How I Turned Casual Meetups Into a Journey of Discovery. It’s not a guidebook. It’s an honest account—sometimes funny, sometimes uncomfortable—about connection, self-discovery, and what our experiences reveal when we actually pay attention to them. In my writing and in conversation, I’m drawn to intimacy, identity, and the messy truths of everyday life—because those are the stories that actually connect us. If something in this conversation resonates, I hope it leaves listeners feeling a little more seen, and a little less alone in figuring things out.

    Book 101 Review, now in its sixth season, features Ryan Wiksell as a special guest, sharing his insights, experiences, and unique perspective with a global audience of readers and lifelong learners.

    Ryan Wiksell NEW BOOK! The Last Seder of James: A Journey Through Passover Dr. Lon Wiksell founded Our Father Abraham in 2016 to promote awareness of the Jewishness of Jesus and Christianity, as well as to educate churchgoers about Jewish festivals like Passover. This just so happens to be the topic of their first published work, a fiction/nonfiction hybrid entitled The Last Seder of James: A Journey Through Passover, published by Morgan James out of New York, and hitting bookstores everywhere August 5, 2025. The Last Seder of James combines historical fiction and expert biblical teaching to shine a light on the centrality of Passover to the Christian faith. In the Story, John the Apostle visits James the brother of Jesus in prison, the night before his execution. Together, they celebrate Passover with a Seder, or ceremonial Passover meal. The Teaching that follows provides commentary on the Story, and goes on to explore the densely symbolic 15 steps of the Passover Seder. Ultimately, Passover reveals God’s eternal covenant promises, and their fulfillment in Jesus from the Nativity, to the Last Supper, to the Cross.
