The Catholic Creativity Community

Have you ever browsed a book store, trying to find something that will be uplifting and edifying for you, and have been more than disappointed, even disgusted at the choices out there?   Have you ever surfed the TV channels and have been turned off by the choices offered?  You may ask:  “Where is good Catholic storytelling?”

I’ve asked this myself many times.  We have a Faith so rich and deep that God’s gift of human imagination and creativity cannot help but be sparked!  The great writer G.K. Chesterton knew this, as did Evelyn Waugh, to name just two of thousands throughout history.  Fiction can help us to learn and to grow in our knowledge of Truth, the truth about our faith, our lives, and our responsibilities, in a way that is captivating and long remembered.

The Catholic Creativity Network is a place where these things can be discussed, where our horizons can be broadened, and where Catholics can come together to share in God’s great gift of creativity.   Perhaps, those great people of letters of past ages can help to spark the muse in some of us today.

Laudetur Jesus Christus! Praised be Jesus Christ!
