The Christian and Fiction
As Christians, we are to go into everything with a Biblical epistemology – worldview – which should define our opinions, our likes, and what we think about. I have a feeling that most people would agree, at least in principle, about this. Our worldview defines who we are and what we are.
Do we take this stand in everything – even in the books we read? Do we pay attention to what we are reading when it comes to fiction? Do we pay attention to the content we are mentally ingesting?
We are to do all things for the glory of God (Isa. 43:7; 1 Pet. 4:11). Our goal in life should be to glorify God and enjoy Him forever (1 Cor. 6:20; Mat. 5:16). If we truly believe this is God’s will for us, then we will understand there are some things that we, as believers, can’t read. And no, I’m not going to give you a list of authors or books to avoid. I don’t want to be legalistic: read this, don’t read that, a list of do’s and don’ts. I want you to consider what you truly believe in the light of God’s Word and talk with your authority figures to find out what they are comfortable with you reading………

I am a 23 year old young lady who is redeemed and saved from my sin only by the grace of God. A bibliophile at heart with a love of history who desires to see the Word of God practically applied to all aspects of our daily lives -- in our homes, in the grocery store, in the political realm. I strive to put my jumbled, chaotic thoughts down onto paper -- reducing them into black and white rows, letters, sentences. Into some semblance of sanity. And I share them here with all of you, where I can challenge you, make you think, and cause you to ask questions. I am the oldest of eleven children living the country life in the deep south.
