Discussions from the new Christian Fantasy Novel, Deception of Magic, where Bible and entertaining fantasy come together.

In Part 1, we learned that the greatest trait a Christian can have is the Fear of the Lord. Not a shaking, trembling fear, but a fear a child has toward a loving father concerning the child’s obedience to his father.
