What will it take for Christians to reclaim their place as the world’s leading storytellers?

The Inklings—Lewis, Tolkien, and their circle—once set the gold standard, crafting tales so rich in meaning they transcended religious and philosophical divides. Why? Because all great stories, at their core, reflect the way God made the world—with truth, beauty, and goodness woven into their fabric.

On this episode of Of Flames and Crowns, Lennox Kalifungwa sits down with Christine Cohen, author of The Winter King and The Sinking City. A proud mother of three, Christine is not only a gifted novelist but also a seasoned editor and teacher of the writing craft. She is a graduate of New Saint Andrews College and holds the distinction of being the first-ever graduate—and now director—of the Camperdown MFA program.

Together, they explore how Christians can recover a vision of wonder, wield words with wisdom, and write stories that leave a lasting mark on culture.
