Review:
Christian Mythmakers is a must for anyone wanting to explore the enchanted region of mythopoeia. A comfortable read, the book is packed with illuminating insights into the interplay of faith and imagination. --Thomas Peters, author of Simply C. S. Lewis and Battling for the Modern Mind: A Beginner's Chesterton

Making and experiencing myth are universal human realities. Hein, ever aware of this fact, leads us on a tour of Christian mythmaking from Bunyan to Wangerin. An enlightening, refreshing, and motivating work. --J. I. Packer, professor of theology, Regent College, and author of Knowing God
