Beside the Point

People have made lucrative careers of giving offense. · Shannon McDermott

Pain and Pleasure

Writing a book and getting tattooed are remarkably similar experiences. · Mark Carver

What Should A Story’s Agenda Be?

Rather than being driven by specific agendas, stories should seek to be bold, daring, and most importantly, authentic. · Zac Totah

A Dark Mind

If Giger’s work embodies dark or even demonic sci-fi art, what would Christian sci-fi art look like? Could such a thing even exist? · Mark Carver

The Gospel According To Star Trek, Part 2

All goodness is God’s goodness. All truth is God’s truth. All beauty is God’s beauty. So we mustn’t shy away from something just because we see a philosophical difference in its makeup. If anything, it’s good for us to be in conversation with ideas with which we disagree. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

A Human Constant

One unrealistic element of modern fiction is the scarcity of prayer. · Shannon McDermott

The Power Of Ink

Tattoos have historically been associated with strength, aggression, power, status, rebellion, and tribal identity. · Mark Carver

We all live under the same rules, and one of the most basic of those rules is: Don’t be a jerk. · Shannon McDermott

Sweetness and Light, Maybe

Disney’s reputation for sweetness and light has long been exaggerated. · Shannon McDermott

The True Aim Of Art

I have a new theory about what’s wrong with modern art. It came to me suddenly, like a flash of insight or a completely random thought. · Shannon McDermott

The Art And Craft Of Glorifying God

The belief that “good art,” simply because it is good art, glorifies God, is a fallacy. Lots of artistic expression has a worldview contrary to God. Contrary, not neutral, and certainly not God glorifying. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

The Biases Of Art

Art has one very clear bias, and that is a bias against untheatrical things. · Shannon McDermott
