Names: Christian speculative fiction
2014 CSA Nominations Are Now Open
The first two rounds of the Clive Staples Award are still in the hands of readers, beginning with the nominations which we’re opening today.

Then and Now, AKA She Who Walked Away From CSF… and What Would Bring Her Back
Change looks to be good. That small vision the CBA had when it came to SF is now irrelevant to me, the reader; but it cheers me to see more fantasy (even if it’s mostly YA) flying off their presses.

Truth And Story: A Look At The Multiverse
Go ahead and write about those alternate worlds and universes. But, be careful. After all, a prudent study of early church heresies reveals just this type of fiction: tweaking the Truth into a version that suits our human thought processes and needs.

Reading Choices: Realism, Truth, And The Bible
God has made us in His own image–which would suggest that we are, by nature of our similitude to Him, creative beings, though we cannot create from nothing. Rather, what we create comes from something already made, and therefore, from God’s world.

How Then Can It Be Christian?
We find idolatry, sorcery, homosexuality, bestiality, murder, and rebellion to God throughout the pages of scripture. Does that make the Bible full of darkness? Of course not. What it means is that God’s Word gives us a realistic view of evil as well as good.

James Somers
Reading Choices: Down With Snobbery
Pretentiousness, arrogance, haughtiness, elitism–I don’t think any of it belongs among Christian writers and readers. But sadly, literature–or more accurately, people’s feelings about literature–generates attitudes of exclusivity.

Steve Laube Answers Your Questions And Mine
On the heels of the news that Steve Laube has purchased Marcher Lord Press, I contacted the new owner regarding the questions that some feel still have been unanswered.

Do We Need Books?
Speculative fiction has moved to visual media in a big way. And not just stories devoid of spiritual truth.

Because God Says So
In some small part, I think Christian writers have the responsibility to dispel the objection that says says “reality” doesn’t verify belief in the “fairy tale” ending, and to demonstrate the way the world really works.

Christian Speculative Fiction And Intellectual Rigor
There is power in stories. Stories help us to see truth through someone else’s eyes rather than through our own biased view. Through stories we can get to Truth by seeing past our own version of truth.

Characters Matter, And Their Character Matters
What we see in Christian novel after Christian novel is a flawed character in need of a Savior. The impression this gives is that people without Christ aren’t likable, that their flawed character means they won’t do heroic deeds or stand up for right.

Sharing My Reading Joy
Many readers are still unfamiliar with Christian speculative fiction–even Christian writers, even Christians writing speculative fiction. Consequently, I thought I’d share with you some of my favorites.

Who Reads Christian Speculative Fiction?
If Christians who love the genre so much that they are writing their own stories aren’t reading what other Christians are writing, then who is reading them?

A Brief Introduction To Gene Wolfe, My Favorite Contemporary Author
If you love speculative fiction, either as reader or writer, Wolfe is worth your time. If you’re a Christian wanting to improve the quality of the books you’re reading or improve your craft as a writer, Wolfe is essential.

Reviving The Clive Staples Award
Voters will be eligible only if they have read two or more of the books nominated. We want this to be a selection by readers of Christian speculative fiction, not just the fans of particular authors.
