You Are Good // Kari Jobe Cover
Nearly 20 years ago, my husband and I walked into church one day, broken and hurting, wondering if God could see our pain, if He cared at all, and if He was still good. That day, a worship leader I had never heard of named Kari Jobe was singing this song. It was the first time

Self-Evaluation is Key
Let me just say: if you go to a church where questions are either prohibited, ignored, or stonewalled, find another church. A healthy person — leader or otherwise — is always willing to self-examine. Questions asked for the right reasons are not threats, they are an opportunity to evaluate. If a leader can’t or won’t do that, it

The Princess and the Card Wolf
An excerpt from my latest book, The Song in the Shadows
A spiritual fantasy romance series with medium spice and epic world-building
“You, sir, are no gentleman.”
“And here I was thinking you’d had your fill of gentlemen this evening.” He shuffled the cards with practiced ease and began dealing them.
“I’m not joking. I don’t know a single game.”
He finished dealing and said, “Lucky for you, I am a shark.”
“I thought we had established you are a wolf.”
“A card wolf. I like that.”
“Again, I must commend you for your uncanny ability to find a compliment in every turn of phrase.”
“I am gifted in many ways,” he said with a small, mocking bow.
“As the ladies will attest, no doubt.”
A grin. “You’re welcome to find out if the rumors are true.”
“What, that you’re a rake and a scoundrel?”
“Is that what they say?”
“Among many other things.” If the rumors were true, Gian was a man of many talents with those of the gentler sex. Talents about which legend had spread far and wide. Indeed, there was not a woman in the castle who had not touted the finer qualities of Gian’s talents.
Rachæl sneered, picking up the cards strewn before her and looking them over. A four with red hearts, a ten with a black symbol she did not recognize, a nine and eight with the same, and a young man dressed in finery.
“What’s this one?” she asked, showing him the card with the young man.
“A knave,” he said, folding the card back into her hand. “You’re not supposed to show me your cards, Princess.”
“But what is that symbol?” she pressed on, ignoring his advice and showing him the card again. “I have four of them.”
“Four?” he asked in disbelief. When she showed him the evidence of her apparently outlandish claim, he guffawed and said, “Of course.”
“Of course what? Is there something wrong?”
“Only that I dealt you one card shy of humiliating me on the first hand.”
“And is that such a bad thing?”
He chuckled. “Depends on who you ask, I suppose.”
He walked her rather patiently through the finer points of the game, and—despite her better judgment—she placed perfectly good coin on the hopes that she would get the card she wanted in exchange for the card he assured her she did not need. Trusting that he wasn’t lying, she gambled and sipped carefully of the rum in her mug.
Her gamble paid off.
Gian shook his head as he gathered the cards laid before him. “I have a feeling if we were playing for our clothing, I would be stark naked within five hands,” he said.
Heat burned her cheeks without remorse at the bold statement.
He chuckled. “Do I offend, Princess?”
“Do you—do you often play—for your clothes, I mean? With ladies present?”
Gian laughed. “Darling, it would be rather pointless to play for such stakes with anything other than the finer sex.”

Morgan G Farris: the Premier Spiritual Fantasy Author of Her Time
In a literary world saturated with fantasy novels that often lean heavily on magic systems, mythical creatures, and dystopian worlds, one author stands out for her deeply emotional, spiritually profound, and richly woven tales—Morgan G Farris. She isn’t just another writer in the genre; she is redefining what it means to write epic spiritual fantasy, blending timeless truths with poetic storytelling and breathtaking romance.
With her hallmark series, The Chalam Færytales, Farris has emerged as the foremost voice in Christian fairy tales, crafting intricate worlds where love, faith, sacrifice, and redemption dance beautifully with magic, royalty, and prophecy. If you haven’t yet discovered her work, this guide will show you why Morgan G Farris is the premier spiritual fantasy author of our time.
A Voice That Transcends the Genre
Morgan G Farris is not just telling stories; she’s building worlds steeped in purpose. Her prose evokes the lyricism of C.S. Lewis and the emotional depth of Madeleine L’Engle, yet her storytelling voice is entirely her own—raw, vivid, and undeniably moving. In an age where fantasy often distances itself from matters of the soul, Farris dares to bring the divine back into the epic, breathing spiritual life into the genre.
Her writing lives at the crossroads of faith and imagination, making her books not only page-turners but soul-stirrers. Readers come for the fantasy but stay for the hope, the heartbreak, and the healing.
The Chalam Færytales: A Romantic Fantasy Series for the Ages
At the center of Morgan G Farris’s success is her sweeping romantic fantasy series, The Chalam Færytales. This series is not just a saga of kings, kingdoms, and cursed destinies—it is a deeply spiritual odyssey of redemption and divine love.
Set in the richly imagined world of Midvar, The Chalam Færytales chronicles the journey of characters who are as broken as they are brave, navigating trials that test their hearts and souls. Each book in the series is a masterclass in world-building, romance, and theological depth.
From the tortured love story of Prince Ferryl and Adelaide to the cosmic weight of prophecy and providence, this series elevates fantasy into something transcendent. It’s no wonder that The Chalam Færytales has become a favorite among readers looking for epic fairytales that offer more than just dragons and sword fights.
Notable Titles in the Series:
- The Promised One
- The Purloined Prophecy
- The Parallax
- The Perdurables
- The War and the Petrichor
- The Stag at Hand
- The Song in the Shadows
- Book VIII (forthcoming)
Each installment adds layers of complexity and spiritual depth, with themes that will resonate deeply with fans of Christian fairy tales and epic spiritual fantasy alike.
What Sets Morgan G Farris Apart?
1. Faith Without Preaching
One of Morgan’s greatest strengths is her ability to write faith into her stories without becoming didactic. Her characters wrestle with doubt, fear, and their understanding of divine will in ways that feel authentic and human. The spiritual elements arise naturally from the narrative—they are not shoehorned in or watered down.
This subtle but powerful approach has earned her a loyal following from both devout Christian readers and those simply seeking truth and meaning in a fantasy setting. Her work shows that Christian fairy tales can be both spiritually rich and artistically compelling.
2. Romance That Feels Real
In The Chalam Færytales, romance is not just a subplot—it’s a heartbeat. The love stories that unfold are as raw as they are radiant. Unlike many in the romantic fantasy series genre, Farris’s romances are not built on fleeting attraction or cliché tropes. They’re layered, sacrificial, and rooted in the characters’ deepest wounds and hopes.
Ferryl and Adelaide’s story, in particular, stands out as one of the most poignant and emotionally intense romances in recent fantasy literature. It’s a love story that will break you and heal you, all while anchoring the spiritual themes of the narrative.
3. Lyrical Prose
Farris’s writing style is both poetic and powerful. Her sentences sing. Her dialogue breathes. Her descriptions transport. Every page feels intentional, with language that elevates the story without losing clarity or emotional resonance.
This lyrical quality makes her books feel like modern epic fairytales—not just stories you read, but experiences you feel in your bones.
4. Characters That Stay With You
What truly cements Morgan G Farris’s place as the premier author of epic spiritual fantasy is her ability to craft unforgettable characters. From tormented kings to fierce queens, from charming morally gray pirates to haunted, enigmatic prophets—each character feels real, flawed, and important.
They’re not just pawns in a plot—they’re the soul of the story. And as they evolve, they take the reader on a journey of self-discovery, faith, and transformation.
A Rising Influence in Christian Speculative Fiction
In a genre long dominated by secular themes, Farris is carving a new path. She is part of a growing movement of authors breathing life into Christian fairy tales that are imaginative, deep, and beautifully written. But even among this emerging crowd, she stands out.
Her books are frequently recommended in reading groups, featured in podcasts, and praised in reviews for bringing something fresh and vital to both the fantasy genre and Christian literature. She’s not just part of the conversation—she’s leading it.
Fan Praise and Critical Acclaim
