Fiction has subversive potential. People let it into their minds, like the Trojan Horse. They don’t know what’s inside.

My purpose as a writer is to communicate in such a way as to challenge the thinking of readers and touch their hearts. Randy Alcorn Read Quote
I try to tell a story that’s good enough to win the right to integrate eternal themes into it. If it’s poorly written or comes across as a sermon, then obviously you don’t reach people, because they’re aware that you’re imposing something on a story that isn’t innate to it. Randy Alcorn Read Quote
