Do Daily Wire Hosts Want to Tear Down Culture or Build It Up?

From sets of “The Chosen” to other positions, faithful employers face challenges when they work with unbelievers. · E. Stephen Burnett

/ SpecFaith / Topics: Christian worldview

Who Says We Can’t Play In the Genetic Sandbox?

Who gets to say what the human race can and can’t do when it comes to tinkering with the planet? · Mark Carver

Who Wants to Kill Christian Fiction?

Right or wrong, people keep claiming Christian fiction will die. Who’s guilty of wanting to kill it? · E. Stephen Burnett

Is Speculative Fiction A First World Pastime?

Is speculative fiction only for the first world, and are we to accept the idea that no one apart from first world individuals will benefit from science fiction and fantasy? · Rebecca LuElla Miller

We Need Fantasy, and Fantasy Needs God

Novelist C. S. Wachter: “Fantasy stories with Christian themes do not only entertain; they also touch our hearts and leave footprints on our souls.” · C. S. Wachter

Who Is In Control?

When someone (or something) has control, it doesn’t like to give it back. · Mark Carver

God and Christian Characters in Space

Novelist Steve Rzasa: “Speculative fiction needs believing characters who are believable.” · Steve Rzasa

Christians And Writing Speculative Fiction

I happen to think that the world desperately needs to hear what Christians have to say. The world needs hope and healing from sin, but the truth is there is only false hope in “looking for the power within,” or the “man is good, you just need to show him empathy” approach to life. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Where Have All the Monsters Gone?

Why aren’t dinosaurs roaming the earth today or giant sharks eating fishing boats whole? · Mark Carver

Imago Hominis

How sick would our society be when people actually prefer the company of soulless, factory-made machines to living, breathing people knit in the womb by God’s hands? · Mark Carver

What Happened to All the Gods?

What does the Bible say about gods and goddesses, demons and devils, magic and spiritualists? Are the Nephilim important to the conversation? Are the gods still around, still important, even when they are mentioned less? · Travis Perry

Keeping the Edge Sharp

The word “edgy” is not a friendly word. After all, what has edges? Knives, scalpels, axes. The sharper the edge, the better the cutting tool. Something “edgy” divides and separates into those who dig it and those who don’t. It’s challenging and often uncomfortable, rewarding for some and repulsive to others. · Mark Carver

The Metaphysics of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War

Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War isn’t preachy about any particular worldview, but still reflects a near-ubiquitous belief in a self-generating universe, a universe with no God in control. · Travis Perry

Since Reading Changes Us . . .

Christians have a great opportunity to serve as prophetic voices, as voices of warning, that these trends don’t end well · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Should Christian Fiction Genres Exist?

Some readers argue that having a genre specifically for Christians isolates us from the world. But is this really the case? · Josiah DeGraaf

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. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Why Rick Killed King Jellybean: Exploring ‘Rick and Morty’

Parker J. Cole explores how “Rick and Morty,” a show about nothing, talks about everything. · Parker J. Cole

Billy Graham is Home, but Not Home Yet

Billy Graham wasn’t just passing through this world. He will return to stay, just like Jesus will. · E. Stephen Burnett

In a Mirror Dimly

What would Christianity and a highly-digitized church look like in the future? · Mark Carver

What Doth These Omens Portend?

What might next year look like for speculative entertainment? · Mark Carver

The God Of The Impossible

One thing I love about speculative fiction is the fact that it opens the door to the impossible. It expands our vision of reality. · Rebecca LuElla Miller
