The Bible is referred to as "The Greatest Story Ever Told." Certainly it's the number one best seller of all time. Consequently then, the Greatest Storyteller is God.
Now within the Bible we see Jesus many times telling stories, also called parables. Reading them, they really were good stories, each one designed with a deeper message, but told in ways his listeners would understand. The story of the Prodigal Son for example, is a great story. And people could easily identify with the characters in his stories.
You would think, then, that there would be more room for fiction within the Christian market which is currently dominated by End-Times fiction and Christian Romance. There should be room for good stories which hold deeper meanings. After all, we serve a highly creative and imaginative God. Shouldn't his children be exhibiting some creativity and imagination as well? Or does the church look down upon such imagination?
