Culture Shifts And The Christian Writer
Is it OK for Christian novelists to write to other Christians or to general market readers “purely for entertainment”? Or should we aim to make an eternal difference through what we write?

Memorable Fathers
In honor of Father’s Day, a list of memorable fathers in speculative fiction.

Remembering The Soldiers Who Died
It doesn’t seem to me that speculative stories are short on wars, and therefore people serving the rest of their culture or nation or species by marching into danger and possible death. What novels actually show beloved characters dying as part of their commitment to fight for right?

Books I’ve Tried To Read And Can’t Get Into
Have you started books you haven’t finished? Do you know what made you stop reading? Do you try and try again until you get into a book? Have you persisted with some book and discovered it’s a keeper, one you’re glad you read and would recommend to others?

Use What You Know
Like so much else about fiction, immersion into a fantasy world is as much a result of the readers’ imagination as it is the writer’s execution.

Violence In Speculative Literature
Speculative fiction is built upon a violent struggle. The goal is never to learn to co-exist with evil or to just learn to get along or to agree to disagree. Instead, two opposing forces, two incompatible worldviews square off.

Fantasy Isn’t For Rabbits . . . Or Kids Exclusively
Are Christians, then, the only people who “outgrow” speculative stories, who don’t want to read fantasy or science fiction as adults? Or is this an incorrect perception publishers have reached?

What Brings God Glory?
When believers say that the “chief end of man” is to “glorify God and enjoy Him forever,” I have to wonder if “glorify God” in that context means the default position—i.e., do nothing because your existence, as God created you, glorifies Him.

How To Do “New”
What will be the next work of speculative fiction to capture the world’s imagination? And perhaps, more importantly, what role will Christians have in the speculative fiction literary universe?
