Fantasy That Works
Next time you read a fantasy, see how it measures in these areas: premise, conflict, realistic characters that act, a dense story world, a story that says something important.

What If Your Kids DO Read Fantasy?
Parents
should
be aware and involved in the thought life of their children, and what they read feeds into their thoughts as much, if not more, than what they see.

What If Your Kids Don’t Read Fantasy?
Parents often ask: Is a specific book okay? Will a fantasy novel encourage real magic? Those are the wrong questions.

‘Doctor, I Let You Go’
Subtle agendas and casting choices may send “Doctor Who” on a radical new course. Some fans want to jump ship, and I reluctantly feel the same.

The Wretched Controversy
The longer this Wretched position sits there with only a brief flurry of opposition, the more deadly it becomes. What may have started out as an interesting concept to consider can quickly become a hardened conviction.

Rebutting a ‘Wretched’ View of Fantasy Fiction
Christian TV host Todd Friel warns about fantasy stories, yet misses the line between real sin and human imagination.

What Is It About Fantasy And Christmas?
The cool thing about good fantasy, however, is that no one explains it. There isn’t a narrator in C. S. Lewis’s Narnia books that says, “Now boys and girls, Aslan is actually Jesus.” Instead, readers are allowed to discover the dots on their own and connect them at their leisure. Or leave them unconnected.

Holidays And Celebrations – Reprise
Holidays and celebrations seem to be a staple in society. Many pagan cultures held festivals and commemorations, some connected to their religious beliefs, and certainly Western society under the influence of Christianity fostered holidays consistent with the tenets of their faith. Consequently, novels that incorporate familiar festivities seem anchored in reality.

Ghosts . . . In The Bible?
Ghost stories, to me, are much like demon and angel stories. Real angels and demons do exist, but few stories stick to the Biblical narrative that show us what those supernatural beings are like.
