Is Fantasy Literature Escapism?

About this episode

Why has fantasy gone from a niche genre to nearly every blockbuster movie in theaters? Is this a coincednece, or an escape ramp from the reality of God, sin, and judgment? Kevin is joined by Danny Craig to trace that escapism straight into the young adult section of the local library. They test Gandalf, Radagast, and Madeleine L'Engle's witches against Scripture's standard for the true source of power, then offer six criteria for choosing books that point kids back to God instead of away from Him.
