Sounds interesting …

… Spotlight on Lion Fiction. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

While Collins declares that he does not mean to impugn fellow Christian publishers, he does highlight ways in which he expects Lion Fiction titles to stand apart. “My problem with much Christian fiction is that I don’t fundamentally believe the motivation,” he says. Instead of having characters serve as mouthpieces, manipulated to larger purpose by the author, he wants them to live their lives realistically, so that basic principles can unfold from their actions—the truth told slant, as it were. That way, the narrative can explore the attraction and affirmation of belief, as much secular fiction does not, without painting itself into its own tight corner.

The Christian who wants to write fiction should do just that, and let his faith show through on its own.
