Good Fiction, Good Theology

I've been reading and writing stories as long as I can remember. When I was little I didn't make the conscious connection between my favorite storytellers—George MacDonald, Madeleine L'Engle, J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis—and their Christian faith. But once I became an adult and found a vocation in theology, it all added up. All the more so when I added Dorothy L. Sayers and Flannery O'Connor to the mix! Now I find I can't do theology without thinking how it might take fictional form, any more than I can tell a story without it being leavened and illumined by matters of faith. If you, too, need good fiction and good theology at the same time, this podcast is for you.
