Speculative Faith Reading Group 9: From Defeat, Final Victory
Even among the greatest stories, the finale of LWW is unique. Here are echoes of Resurrection, eternal joy, and the truth that Christ’s people will reign physically over the New Heavens and New Earth.

Speculative Faith Reading Group 8: The Stone Table
In “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” how has Aslan’s death affected you, and how does it affect you now? How do other stories’ heroes’ deaths remind you of Christ’s ultimate death?

When Bad Things Happen To Good Characters
It looks like a significant majority of our readers prefer posts that are educational, help them make informed choices about their reading/viewing material, and/or provoke discussion. Tough cookies. You’re getting a story today.

Speculative Faith Reading Group 6: Greed and Gifts
In these two chapters of “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” we see good and evil even more clearly — along with God-exalting, reality-reflecting truths of what really causes evil, and the seriousness of fighting it.

Why Christians Can Love Speculative Stories
“Popologetics” author Ted Turnau: Speculative stories give more space to explore reality, imaginative worlds that enchant, and reflections of our true home.

The Strange Case Of Nicheolas Bartleby
He loves speculative stories. But deep down he doesn’t much care for actually sharing the joy in the best ways possible.

Reading, Ratings, And Parental Guidance
Rating systems deliver the job of discernment into the hands of someone removed from the consumer. Movie ratings are often used as an example of what works when it comes to a quick and easy assessment of stories. However, I doubt seriously if any person Hollywood charges to rate a movie does so based on a Christian worldview.

Speculative Faith Reading Group 4: Reality and Narnia
Why did C.S. Lewis write about four children coming into the magical land of Narnia? Why not two, or three, or even one, in order to write a simpler story with a more-focused cast of characters?

The Legend Of Intaglio, Part 5
His joints protested as he struggled to his feet; every movement was squeaky and stiff. He took some small consolation in the fact his trousers were dry.

Speculative Faith Reading Group 3: Enter The Witch
For the real-life Speculative Faith Reading Group for LWW, this week we’ll pick up the pace. It helps that chapters 3 and 4 are short and follow one vital story development — Edmund meeting the White Witch.

Speculative Faith Reading Group 2: Meeting Mr. Tumnus
Week 2 of the “Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” reading group. Goat-men, tree spirits, naked Greek gods, a drunk on a donkey, and an evil White Witch — how are these things in a classic story Christians love?

Speculative Faith Reading Group 1: Entering The ‘Wardrobe’
This week I’m starting a reading group at my church for “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.” You’re invited to join. How does this story honor God, and how can we learn from C.S. Lewis’s success at redeeming pagan myth for His glory?

Stepping Stones & One Angry Lady
We can—and oftentimes should—examine speculative fiction ourselves. We should consider the good and the bad they offer. We should consider the lessons they teach and the journeys they take the reader on. And whatever our prayerful conclusions, we must acknowledge that the printed word is always a perfect springboard for discussion.

Fantasy: Where To Go Next?
You want to introduce a friend of yours to fantasy. Where do you start? That seems like a no-brainer. Start with the best — Lewis and Tolkien. But then what? What if this particular friend of yours says, I love this fantasy stuff you’ve given me. Love, love, love them. What should I read next? What do you say?

No Such Thing As Miracles
Author Athol Dickson: “Magical realism presents the supernatural as a matter of fact, almost as an everyday event, much as science fiction does. But like pure fantasy, magical realism refuses to explain itself.”

Rearranging Icons 7: Coming Full-Circle
The harder we try to make this icon metaphor fit into the practical business of writing and understanding literature, the squishier and messier it becomes.
