Greetings fellow writers. I am a bookworm former atheist who became a newly hardcore Christian. I have dabbled a little in writing but really want to write some Christian novels. I was into high fantasy and high science fiction and love world building and magic systems, and that fact hasn't changed even if I gained my faith. So right now I wish to write pretty much a Christian superhero series that while is Christian doesn't beat you over the head with self-righteousness and condemnation. I also wish to use the novels to have basic themes, so the first and foremost theme would be: Teamwork. I have also critiqued many stories and chapters and have a pretty good grasp of grammar. I love to help people. Hope to see you in forum and Christ Jesus bless you. PS I am not overly sensitive and nothing offends me.

Hey, welcome! Just sent you the "get acquainted with LF" message. Some helpful links in there to point you to stuff. Hope it's useful. Christ-follower/fantasy author here, too! New to the faith? Congrats and welcome! The way I see it, we're in good company: C.S. Lewis, JRR Tolkien, Madeleine L'Engle. All of them Christian fantasy authors. So never apologize for that. I mean, aren't we just following in Dad's footsteps, creating universes with words? Ours just happen to stay on paper. Which is probably a good thing. Anyway, I hope LF is a good fit for you. See you around the forums.

Welcome aboard.
And as a fellow Christian, even if you wish to stay in Fantasy, it's done wonders for well known Christian Writers like Tolken, CS Lewis, and Brandon Sanderson. If not, Lewis is said to have used Narnia as his way to explore getting back into Christianity, so maybe something similar with super heroes.

Greetings and salutations, welcome to LF. I do like how you separated faith from religion. I’m kind of a polyglot writer. Vampire books out, some sci-fi coming, and a witch, warlock, lycan & gargoyle story as a WIP. History major from college who wanted to be a teacher.
