Topics: Secular vs. Christian fiction
Jordan Peele’s Twilight Zone Newest Season Executes like Modern Day Parables
Season Two of Jordan Peele’s Twilight Zone executes well the tradition of multi-layered storytelling. Still, these modern-day stories lack the solution-oriented parables of Christ.

Who Wants to Kill Christian Fiction?
Right or wrong, people keep claiming Christian fiction will die. Who’s guilty of wanting to kill it?

Where Do You Find Your Speculative Fiction?
This post is really my effort to understand the state of speculative Christian fiction as it stands today. Any thoughts you care to share would be greatly appreciated.

The Myth That Will Not Die
Good speculative novels, written from a Christian perspective, by Christians, or about Christians, are out there. The myth that Christian fiction is like a soiled diaper, that it is only for elderly ladies, is simply a myth.

A Christian Twist
Christianity itself introduces different elements into fiction.

“Better” Christian Entertainment
Does better artistic quality mean better Christian entertainment?

We Need More Christian Fiction
Half the battle is believing that Christian fiction should do more than “create art for art’s sake.” I don’t see that position in Scripture. Rather, I think a more accurate statement for the Christian is that we are to create art for God’s sake.

To Read or Not To Read: How Should Christians View Religious and Secular Fiction?
When it comes to fiction, the question shouldn’t be “What do we read?” but “How do we read it?”

The Purpose Of Christian Storytellers
Even if the CBA bombs, or if it survives and spec-fic (or other genres) struggles to grow like a rose in the arctic tundra, that’s not the end of the story. Because our focus should be on our purpose as storytellers.

Pushing (Your) Boundaries
Edginess in art is a matter of pushing boundaries, and consequently is relative to what, and whose, boundaries.

Definition and Redefinition
As we consider the question of what makes fiction Christian, one of the first things we have to wonder is: Why are we asking this question?

Presenting Truth In Fiction
Stories are powerful tools for presenting the truth. As our mindset has become increasingly postmodern, a problem has arisen that undermines this valuable aspect of storytelling. Truth is no longer a defined standard, a rock-solid starting point for interpreting reality. […]

If You Want To Make God Laugh…
So last month, I spent a Monday night seated in front of my computer. My wife would tell you that this, in and of itself, is not unusual. But that particular night, I was watching the liveblog for the Christy […]
