Items related to Not Safe, but Good
Synopsis
In C.S. Lewis's classic The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, Lucy asks if Aslan the lion is safe. It is quickly clarified that Aslan is not safe...but he is good. That concept serves as the foundation for this collection of short stories. While written from a Christian worldview, our goal isn't comfort food for Christians or G-rated stories that offer simplistic lessons. Instead, we're serving up stories sharpened by faith. Stories that will engage, challenge, entertain, and stretch the reader. These stories aren't necessarily safe...but without question, they are good.
From Homer Hickam, the best-selling author of Rocket Boys--which later became the movie October Sky--to editor and contributing best-selling author Bret Lott, this collection spans a talented community writing an eclectic blend of fiction. These stories will take you on a journey filled with lightheartedness, profundity, hilarity, tragedy...and ultimately hope.

From AudioFile
[Editor's Note: This is a combined review with NOT SAFE, BUT GOOD: Part One.]--Narrators Jon Gauger and Sherri Berger perform this collection of short stories from THE BEST CHRISTIAN SHORT STORIES IN 2006, compiled to depict Christian commitment in story form. Gauger's effortless-sounding narration captures the spirit of simple faith to deliver authentic characters and surprising plots. Berger's warm Southern tones recount stories of humor and others of a more serious tone. Her seamless narratives portray engaging characters that often bring smiles. Each narrator animates and freshens the short readings to breathe life into a variety of stories. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
