This One is Easy
What is the duty of a Christian writer? Harrison Scott Key is thoughtful enough to explore the question. We will simply shout the answer. WRITE WELL. No more schlock in the name of evangelism, no more abuse of words for the purpose of saving souls. If you are a Christian writer, be filled with the love and compassion of Christ and DO NOT subject the world to any more stilted sentences in the name of biblical apologetics. Guilt inducing fiction, overworked theologically sound screenplays, sugary personal narratives scrubbed of truth and honesty - stop it all, right now, this second, not another keystroke. If you are a writer, write from your soul, the one God gave you. Art honors God all on it's own.
