Diverse Stories

international flags flying against white building and blue sky

One of the things I've been challenging myself to do this year has been to read more Christian books written by authors from other countries. I love that the body of Christ spans the four corners of the world and that we get to benefit from hearing so many different perspectives.

I've also appreciated getting to know some amazing authors and readers online from other nations and continents as it's enriched my understanding of how Christians experience life. It helps me realize that the views I take for granted may only be limited to where I am situated, geographically and culturally.

I haven't read all of the authors below yet, but here are a few Christian fiction authors who write from outside of North America if you're interested in reading more:

Africa

Asia

Australasia
Europe
Please let me know if there are others to add to these locations. As of yet, I don't know of Christian fiction authors from Central or South America, but please feel free to share as I'd love to expand this list!

    Oh, wow! I'm just seeing this. Thank you so much for lifting up so many authors who write from outside North America and for including me. I can't think of any from Central or South America, either.

    I'll list a couple who I've read and loved. Aminata Coote is in Jamaica and Vida Li Sik in South Africa. And Autumn Macarthur is an Aussie based in England. Thanks once again!

Review: Another Gospel?

Having listened to Alisa Childers ' podcast over the years, I really enjoyed "chewing" my way through her debut book, Another Gospel? A Lifelong Christian Seeks Truth in Response to Progressive Christianity . It's taken me so long that she's now onto her third book! 😂 Book Synopsis A Movement Seeks to Redefine Christianity. Some Think that It Is a Much-Needed Progressive Reformation. Others Believe that It Is an Attack on Historic Christianity. Alisa Childers never thought she would question her Christian faith. She was raised in a Christian home, where she had seen her mom and dad feed the hungry, clothe the homeless, and love the outcast. She had witnessed God at work and then had dedicated her own life to leading worship, as part of the popular Christian band ZOEgirl. All that was deeply challenged when she met a progressive pastor, who called himself a hopeful agnostic. Another Gospel? describes the intellectual journey Alisa took over several years as she wr...
