Why Are Batman and Superman Fighting?

Why are Batman and Superman fighting? Why did Man of Steel have to be so “dark” and “gritty”? Superman never kills! · E. Stephen Burnett

‘Risen’ and The Power Of Miraculous Realism

The film “Risen” is fantastical, realistic, and explores Bible themes other “Christian movies” can’t or won’t. · E. Stephen Burnett

Strength In Weakness: A Tale Of Hobbits and Heroes

Hobbits make for terrible hero material. At least to the critical, externally-focused eye. They’re small in stature, physically inferior, known for gardening, consuming mass quantities of ale, and living a simplistic lifestyle. Not warriors hardened by battle and filled with […] · Zac Totah

Dream Treaders: A Review

I think Dream Treaders is a triple (with nobody out), if not a home run. It’s a great book for middle grade boys, a reading group that is highly under served, in my opinion. I applaud Wayne Batson for such a wonderful story (and Thomas Nelson for publishing it). · Rebecca LuElla Miller

The Terror Of Light

When I watch “Sunshine,” I get an inkling of how terrifying God’s righteousness would be to our frail eyes and souls. · Mark Carver

Why Do We Suspend Disbelief For Stories?

Are we stupid and illogical if we enjoy stories that aren’t real? Think about it for a minute. Any time we engage in a story, whether a movie or a book, we’re letting our logic walls down. Fiction, by its […] · Zac Totah

Who Ya Gonna Call?

There is a noticeable contrast in Van Helsing’s methods and beliefs compared to more recent hunters. · Mark Carver

Once Upon A Time: If We Tune In

A concise yet biased summary of the last half-season of Once Upon A Time. · Shannon McDermott

Why Are Superhero Stories So Popular

Superhero movies are all the rage in the entertainment industry these days. From blockbusters like The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy to lesser-known films such as Ant-Man, superheroes have stormed in and taken over Hollywood. Ten years ago, such […] · Zac Totah

Christian Fantasy And Magic

If we are writing Christian fantasy, and our goal is to reflect something of God’s truth through our craft, shouldn’t we take a page out of the Holy Spirit’s playbook and portray the power of God as it actually is—amazing, miraculous, magical? · Nathan Lumbatis

Reading Fantasy

Some might think fantasy is pure escapism, but in reality, it helps us deal with the darkness in our own lives, inside and out. · Jennette Mbewe

Fantasy: An Indispensable Way To Understand Ourselves

Fantasy is the outcome of our contemplation on basic life questions: Why and how are we different from other animals? What is death and why? With fantasy, our minds use complex metaphors to bridge the gap across the unknown in order to broaden and inform what we do know. · Brent King

The Silver Chair Movie Should Follow These Four Signs

“The Silver Chair” can follow four signs to restart (not reboot) “The Chronicles of Narnia” film series. · E. Stephen Burnett

Eat Right and Exorcise

What if a Christian author took that bold step and blended the obscene with the holy (and wrote an awesome story too)? What would be people’s reactions? · Mark Carver

My Take: The Force Awakens

There’s an interesting nod to behavior psychology, too, and the strength of the human will—both for good and for ill. The idea seems to be that “training” can only be successful to a certain degree, but ultimately the person has the final say about what they will or won’t do. · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Pretense or Reality

Last week I came across an article titled, “Are Droids Slaves?” The droids in question were the droids of Star Wars, and the answer was so unequivocally Yes I wondered why they bothered with the diffident headline. · Shannon McDermott

A Hopeful Future

Understanding God’s creation can be a profound act of worship, and creating in order to engage our imaginations and benefit humanity is something to be celebrated. Science is not a threat to the Christian worldview, since God is the author of all truth. Anything that is discovered will lead to Him, and anything invented reflects the creativity inherent in all humans being made in His image. · Mark Carver
