What Karen Kingsbury thinks readers are looking for

"You’re looking a lot of times for escape. That’s I think why Christian fiction initially wasn’t viewed as something valid to the Christian walk, because it was more of an escape. But when you can come into a story, the walls of your heart are down. We can use more storytelling, I think, on our journey to understanding faith."

    Love that last sentence. Takes me back to the true meaning of myth: stories of our identity.

    Jesus told stories as a way to understanding faith. But I rarely feel like I’ve had an escape when I hear them. Nabbed is more like it.
