Moral Relativism Doesn’t Wear A Cape

Who can deny the appeal of superheroes? The story of humanity is filled with them, real and mythical. Hercules, Genghis Khan, Joan of Arc, Paul Bunyan, Malala…the list goes on. Every culture in the world has them in some form or another, and they all have the same effect on those who hear their stories. They inspire, they encourage, they motivate, they empower. Sometimes they conquer, sometimes they save. Some build mighty empires, some hear the cries of the weak and helpless.

Tolerance And Stories? A Discussion Of Carve The Mark

what are Christians to write? What are Christians to read? If general fiction is to be whitewashed of anything that could possibly be considered offensive, what kind of stories will that leave us?
— Rebecca LuElla Miller in April 2017 —

On Giving Offense And Being Offensive

Christians are not to be offensive in the way we speak, but the Bible itself says the message of the gospel is offensive to those who are perishing.

You Rang?

The idea of man exerting some control over the spirit realm is very tantalizing and has long held a place in entertainment.

Seven More Lies Christians Believe About ‘The Shack’

Earth Is Our Final Destination

I love to take hypothetical and speculative romps through the imagination but I consider myself to be a realist. I find the media and the public’s enthusiasm for the rather frequent discovery of “habitable” worlds to be silly groupthink excitement.

Disney And Culture

Pop culture, and Disney right along with others, has been pushing agendas that clash with God’s moral standards for as long as there has been pop culture.

The Foolishness Of God

1 Corinthians 1:25: “For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength” (NIV).

Dun Dun Dun Dun Da-Dun Dun Da-Dun…

Hitler, and the whole Nazi Reich, were the perfect bad guys. Homogeneous (by their own efforts), sharply dressed in intimidating uniforms, a very eye-catching logo and distinct greeting gesture (quite the opposite of “Live Long and Prosper”), and a coldly mechanical and unstoppable war machine bent on global domination *evil laugh.* You can’t write a better fictitious villain or enemy if you tried.

Presenting The Gospel Through Story

Sharing the Gospel need not take place in traditional ways, nor need it be overt. Why? This is where the power of story enters the picture.

The Nightmare Of Christmas

The idealized Western Christmas is a time of jingling bells, snow (unless you live in the South with Christmas temperatures regularly in the 50s and 60s), Christmas trees, lavishly decorated homes, presents spilling out into the hallway, and a seemingly endless barrage of Christmas parties. And of course, the stories. Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, The Night Before Christmas, The Tin Soldier, A Christmas Carol, and many more. However, in many other countries, Christmas tales take quite a sinister turn.

The Need For Diversity In Christian Fiction

The narrow approach to diversity makes itself painfully evident in Christian fiction. Why? The answer is simple. Diversity is too edgy.
