Salvaging Scripture For Our Own Story Parts
If human authors’ intentions and genre guidelines are worth respect from readers, then surely God as Author, His intentions and reading Scripture rightly, are all worth even more. Yet some novels’ flagrant misuse of Scripture and Biblical concepts, using only scraps of it to fit sporadically into another story, is dubious.

Deus Ex Machinas and The Doctor
A deus ex machina — a surprise twist at the last second to save one’s characters or story — need not always be wrong, for at least four reasons.

How God Saved Me While I Read A Novel
I doubt that Thyra Ferre Bjorn was making a statement about abortion when she wrote her book in the 1950s. I don’t think she intended to prick the heart of a young woman, some thirty years later, who had purposefully killed two of her children via the abortionist’s table. But God used her book to save my life.

The Rise Of Steampunk
Ever been in one of those rare occasions when your job coincided with an alternate interest? That was me last week, seconds after I had name-dropped a certain term while interviewing someone for my day job. She was a bed-and-breakfast […]

Fear, Festering and Faith: The Artist’s Contract With Honesty
Apologies for tardiness. I confess to being deathly ill, but that doesn’t usually stop me. This week, I was trying to find something honest to say, and nothing wanted to come out. The notion of faith and fictional speculation didn’t […]

The â€priesthood Of Artists’ and Godly Criticism
In which the author copies a previous lengthy comment and fashions it into the column it should have been, about problems with “priesthood of artists” notions. Last week I mini-ranted about Derek Webb’s interview. A lot of bloggers have been […]

It’s Dawn
OK, it’s actually late afternoon here, but it is time for me to write my review of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, so I used a little chronometric license 🉠. I went to see the latest version—I say […]

Artist â€priests,’ God-centered Definitions and More
You know those infamous “clip shows” television sitcoms sometimes have, perhaps at the end of a season when the financial and ideas budgets are both running low? This will not be like that. Rather I present here a roundup of […]

Redeeming Santa Legends For Delighting In Grace
At Christmas, when it comes to Santa and other issues, do reflexive “we’re to be different” lines jump to our minds? We need to balance that half-truth with enjoyment of God’s good gifts — including celebrating holidays and feasting, which Scripture does support, for God’s glory.

Defeating Man-Centered Monsters With Greater Stories
For the Christian, the choice seems easy between God-rejecting and God-centered stories. But if I had to choose between stories that ignore God and those that (despite frequent hints of God-centeredness) include Him wrongly, I must admit I would prefer the God-ignoring ones.

John Buchan on A Fiction Author’s â€cleverness’
Politician, diplomat, Scotsman, Presbyterian, and writer of dozens of World War 1-era spy novels with occasional supernatural flair — that was John Buchan, who also, it seems, had a penchant for self-parody. That seems clear from this exchange early in […]
