I don’t understand your portrayal in The Ishbane Conspiracy of the Harry Potter series
Question from a reader:
My husband and I have long been readers of your fiction, ever since we were introduced to your work through Deadline. We went on to read Dominion aloud together, and since have used your books to begin our own discussions on faith together.

I notice that sometimes you allude to science fiction, including Star Trek and Star Wars. Do you recommend that Christian young people get into the Star Wars movies and books?
I enjoy science fiction and I do like Star Wars, especially the original three movies. However, Star Wars is a very poor place to get a theology, and that’s my biggest problem with its influence on the young, who don’t yet have the filters in place to screen out the heresy. If kids and parents can sit down, like we did with our daughters, and discuss the theological errors with “the Force,” that can be very good for them (and us).

She didn’t have to leave, but cried steadily, from Gethsemane on. So did I. In our car, Nanci finally broke the silence and said, “I kept thanking Jesus for being my hero.”
He is far more than a hero, of course—but he certainly is that. The movie brought me closer to Jesus and to Nanci. I couldn’t have asked for anything more.
