For ten years—I know this because my daughter, Selah is ten—I have critiqued and fallen hard for Christian fiction novels. I have read some of the best and some of the most challenged. All of them I have seen a manifestation of our God. God, I love you for giving me this gift to have read them all. I look forward to the next decade. Today I would like to share --not in any particular order—the best written Christian Fiction Novels of the 2000-2010.
