Yes, Christian Creators Can Hire Secular Staff

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

Halloween, Evil, And Speculative Fiction

The point is this: evil in the real world is not so easy to pin down—not without God’s clear standards. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

How ‘It: Chapter Two’ Defeats Its Devilish Clown

“We must realize that our enemy is just a clown. He’s a loser.” · Daniel Whyte IV

Is Responsibility for Art Limited to Temptations for People You Know Personally?

Does Christian liberty mean we can do whatever we want? Could it be that Christian responsibility goes being concerned about tempting a fellow believer we personally know to sin? · Travis Perry

Should Christian Storytellers Help Keep Their Fans from Temptation?

Are creators biblically responsible to ensure their fans don’t use the story for the purpose of sinning? · E. Stephen Burnett

On Culture And Giving Offense Or Being Offensive

Are Christians ready to be marginalized further? Are we preparing to share the gospel regardless of how offensive the culture finds it? · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Cultural Moralist, Separatist, or Universalist?

What should be our attitude in regard to the culture around us? Trying to make the culture better? Doing our own thing? Or accepting all without judgment? · Travis Perry

Brad and His Dad

Moral of the story: we are not alone in the universe, but we don’t have to look to the stars to find who else is out there. · Mark Carver

A Case Study in Fictional Magic: Dawn Before the Dark

In Dawn Before the Dark, magic at first glance would seem to stem from gods other than the one Creator. How will this story world of a gender-based curse turn that apparent focus on magic on its head? How does this book link a strong story with a desire to honor God? · Travis Perry

Heaven Will Be the Happiest Place on Earth

When we rightly deconstruct fake-Heavens, we might accidentally start tearing down the real Heaven. · E. Stephen Burnett

Is Western Society Headed Toward Illiteracy?

Our society went so far as to make illiteracy a thing of the past. A first step here in the US was to make public school mandatory for children up to a certain age. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

What Harm Could Come from Fictional Magic?

Is it actually possible for a fictional portrayal of magic to do harm? Should “harm” be our primary focus in the first place–or honoring God? · Travis Perry

Just Imagine…

There is one world which so far exists only on paper but is far from fiction: the new heavens and new earth that will endure for eternity after Jesus returns. · Mark Carver

Seven Ways to Deal With the Problem Magic Poses Christian Fantasy Writers

What is really is the problem with magic according to the Bible? How (and why) can Christian fantasy writers deal with this problem when creating stories? · Travis Perry

The Sky is Falling

As technology and planning improves, death and destruction is mitigated by degrees, but the fact remains that we are still at the mercy of the Earth in all aspects. · Mark Carver

Tranquility: Tainting Creation in Fantasy Fiction

Tranquility is the first fantasy novel to include a mythical creature based on the common loon. · Christa Conklin

So Do We All Just Hate ‘Star Wars’ Now? Is That How It Is?

If the new “Star Wars” movies really do subvert fantasy hero-worship, doesn’t this also mock our good desires for heroes? · E. Stephen Burnett

You Must Not Steal E-Books

I keep seeing all these excuses from e-book thieves eager to justify their violation of God’s law. · E. Stephen Burnett

The Price and Power of Individual Choices

Some readers have asked me why The Savage War doesn’t have much to do with magic. My first serious answer is that High Fantasy was not the story I was given to write. My second is that it is very […] · Esther Wallace

‘I Do Not Read Fluff!’

If she’d said, “I’m not a fiction person,” or “I’m not into fantasy,” I would have understood. · K. Berklund-Pagé
