About Ancient Frontiers

Practical faith. Prophetic futures. Strange, beautiful stories.

Ancient Frontiers is a journal at the intersection of theology, technology, and imagination—where timeless truths meet emerging systems, and fiction walks the line between myth and revelation.

Published by author and veteran content strategist Allen Taylor, this newsletter explores:

• Christian living in a wired world — rooted, practical, and unapologetically relevant

• Dispatches from the digital frontier — Web3, AI, and the incredible ideas reshaping society

• Speculative fiction — stories that defy the ordinary and disturb the expected; tales with heart, written for mind and soul

Whether you’re a believer navigating tech’s disruption, a builder looking for meaning, or a reader hungry for strange new worlds and sacred echoes of the past—you’re in the right place.

Who Am I?

I'm Allen Taylor. Writer, publisher, and chronic overthinker with a foot in three worlds: faith, future tech, and fiction. I’ve been publishing online for 20+ years, writing about blockchain and belief before most people knew what either was, and slinging poetic words since before the World Wide Web.

I believe in truth that transcends, tools that transform, and tales that wake us up.

In other words, there’s nothing bland or vanilla here. We’re not kicking tires. We’re building new realities and revisiting the old ones.
