What If Your Kids DO Read Fantasy?
Parents
should
be aware and involved in the thought life of their children, and what they read feeds into their thoughts as much, if not more, than what they see.

The Wretched Controversy
The longer this Wretched position sits there with only a brief flurry of opposition, the more deadly it becomes. What may have started out as an interesting concept to consider can quickly become a hardened conviction.

Holidays And Celebrations – Reprise
Holidays and celebrations seem to be a staple in society. Many pagan cultures held festivals and commemorations, some connected to their religious beliefs, and certainly Western society under the influence of Christianity fostered holidays consistent with the tenets of their faith. Consequently, novels that incorporate familiar festivities seem anchored in reality.

Magic In The Story: What’s The Big Deal?

Holidays And Celebrations
J. K. Rowling was not alone in making use of this-world holidays. C. S. Lewis created a powerful, and Christian, message in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by referencing the fact that Narnia suffered under a never-ending winter–always winter and never Christmas.

Stepping Stones & One Angry Lady
We canâand oftentimes shouldâexamine speculative fiction ourselves. We should consider the good and the bad they offer. We should consider the lessons they teach and the journeys they take the reader on. And whatever our prayerful conclusions, we must acknowledge that the printed word is always a perfect springboard for discussion.

Why I Wrote âThe Harry Potter Bible Studyâ

Harry Potter, Bob The Tomato, and Genre
At one little Baptist church in 1997, no one had heard of Harry Potter. But “VeggieTales” was all the rage, and was proposed for the church’s VBS â until Vera (not quite her real name) spoke up. âI wonât have this at my church,â she said firmly. âItâs fantasy.â
