Tim Eichenbrenner believes words are a powerful force in civilization. When combined properly, they communicate ideas, theories, policies, and dialogue, the latter being something we sorely miss in today’s political climate. When combined hatefully, words can create animosity, start controversy, and even incite war. When put to paper, they create poetry, literature, textbooks, and laws. Yes, words are vitally important.

Tim Eichenbrenner is a native Virginian, who moved with his family to Charlotte, NC, in 1979 for his pediatric training. After completing his residency, he elected to stay in Charlotte, a beautiful southern city, where he and his wife raised their two children and he practiced pediatrics for 38 years. In 2017, he retired from the full-time practice of medicine and embarked on a new pursuit—writing.

While Tim always enjoyed writing, he did not begin studying the discipline until he felt called to write a book. He found there to be a huge difference between writing and writing seriously. The latter requires participation in coursework and writing groups, attending writers’ conferences, studying as many books as possible on the numerous facets of writing, and reading books of all genres. Tim’s debut novel, To Live in the Light, was published in 2022 by Morgan James Publishing.

Tim’s longstanding blog, Tuesday Thoughts, gives him an opportunity to put his thoughts on paper for others to read and consider. His goal is to present a reasoned opinion on issues and stories that confront us in today’s world. While people may not always agree, dialogue—the exchange of words and thoughts—is never a bad starting point.

After losing everything of importance in his life but his medical practice, Jack Wilson ends a day at work only to discover it might be his last.

Having experienced loss and betrayal as a child, Jack Wilson sets his sights on achieving his life-long ambition of becoming a doctor. Nothing stands in his way until he meets and unexpectedly falls in love with Annie Monroe, a nursing student at the hospital where Jack is a resident physician.

Jack faces professional mishaps and personal loss until his life spirals out of control and he loses his faith, as well as the most important people in his life. He’s left with his medical practice—the only thing that still matters to him—until that, too, is threatened, and he has nothing left to live for.

It takes a mysterious, out-of-this-world encounter to change Jack’s life, salvage his career, and restore his faith.

To Live in the Light explores the complexity of past and present relationships, personal loss, and doubts about faith, revealing how everything can change—just when it seems all is lost.
