Saturday – Open Topic

Reading – Luke 15

Highlight Verse:

“To illustrate the point further, Jesus told them this story: “A man had two sons.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭15‬:‭11‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Thus begins the story of the Prodigal Son. It’s a beautiful story perfectly aimed at a specific audience. Not only that but it did a great job of illustrating an important truth.

Jesus was a Christian Fiction Author!

Those who know me know where I’m going with this. I’ve been an amateur fiction author since my teens. In recent years I’ve taken steps to hone the craft learning from some amazing authors.

The aim with my fiction writing is similar to my aim for this study as well as my blogs –

To impact people with the principles found in the Gospel of Jesus.

Many people are highly influenced by fiction. I’ve seen some swayed away from Jesus by reading some very relatable writing that subtly undermines faith.

With all the stories rattling around in my head, I can’t, in good conscience, let misleading fiction monopolize reader’s time.

I’d rather let the stories from this overactive imagination lead people to Christ.

Do you have an abundance of stories that need to be told?
Are you willing to hone the talents God gave you?
