Realm Makers: Go Beyond The Blogs

Realm Makers offered more than cosplay and shared fandom. It gave deep doctrinal magic and a chance for Christian fans to better ā€œincarnateā€ their love of fantastic fiction. · E. Stephen Burnett

Halloween, Horrors, and ā€˜Star Warsā€™

Do you ā€œobserveā€ or not observe Halloween? Have you changed from one view to another? Share your thoughts on that, or on the ā€œStar Warsā€ empire assimilation, the horror genre, or that evidently heresy-flooded ā€œNoahā€ movie. · E. Stephen Burnett

Holy Terror

Today, I’d like to toss a recent article from Christianity Today onto the table for discussion. It deals with horror, a speculative genre we don’t frequently chat about here… · Fred Warren

Christian Versus Secular Novels

Never Ceese author Sue Dent: When I started out in publishing Iā€™d never once heard the market divided up into the two very specific categories of Christian and Secular. Genres, yes, but not Christian or Secular. · Sue Dent

We are called to think pure thoughts and meditate on that which is good. However, that does not mean we should live in denial about the darkness all around us. · Mike Duran

Shooting At Halloween Pumpkins

At Halloween, do demons really run wild over neighborhoods and souls? Or might Christians ā€œdemonizeā€ decorations, to the glee of the actual Devil? This former pumpkin-ā€œkillerā€ explores our actual worst enemies, and the One Who defeated them. · E. Stephen Burnett

An Apologetic Of Horror, Part 3

The defense of horror and thriller movies in principle should not be misconstrued to be a justification for all horror and thriller movies in practice. It is the mature Christian who, because of practice, has his senses trained to discern good and evil in a fallen world. · Brian Godawa

The portrayal of good AND evil, as well as their consequences, are two sides of Godā€™s one honorable, pure, lovely, excellent, and praiseworthy truth. According to the Bible, pointing out wrong is part of dwelling on what is right, exposing lies is part of dwelling on the truth, revealing cowardice is part of dwelling on the honorable, and uncovering corruption is part of dwelling on the pure. · Brian Godawa

An Apologetic Of Horror, Part 1

Horror is not an inherently evil genre of storytelling. It can be used for gratuitous evil purposes, or for godly moral purposes. The Bible tells many stories using the horror genre in order to inspire holy fear of evil and admonish or chastise those in sin. · Brian Godawa

What Gives You Nightmares?

Last Friday, our guest blogger, author Wayne Thomas Batson, wrote about fantasy as a vehicle for soul searching. His remarks reminded me of what I read from Anne Rice when she announced her conversion (since revoked) to the Catholic faith. […] · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Guest Blog ā€“ Mike Dellosso

The Philosophy of Me Mike Dellosso When Becky asked about writing a guest post she said I could write about anything I wanted as long as it was somehow related to speculative fiction and then she mentioned the P-word: Philosophy. […] · Rebecca LuElla Miller
