Christian Fiction

A Christian novel is any novel that expounds and illustrates a Christian world view in its plot, its characters, or both, or which deals with Christian themes in a positive way. Many novels with Christian themes also fall into specific mainstream fiction genres.

In North America, the Christian novel has evolved into a specific genre of its own, written explicitly by and for Christians of a particular type. Such a Christian novel does not have to involve an actual event or character in Bible history.

Daniel Patterson, One Chance

Over in the Amazon reviews a reader just said: 'Loved it! Great read especially during this season of Lent and with Good Friday only a week and a half away. Extremely impressed with the historical accuracy and research, although in general a fictional story brings to light/life the reality of capital punishment in ancient Rome. ...' So grateful for the support as we just hit the top 200 in Biblical Fiction! ...more
