Ranking the BEST Christian Fantasy Tropes! (My Top Picks)

Jul 27, 2025    Caleb Ward

What are the absolute BEST tropes in Christian fantasy? As a Christian fantasy author myself (of the Creativity Stone Series!), I'm uniquely qualified to give you my *definitive* ranking of all Christian fantasy tropes! 😂 (Okay, maybe not definitive, but it's my honest opinion!)


In this video, I'm diving into a tier list to rank common fantasy tropes specifically from a Christian fantasy perspective. We're talking everything from "Chosen One" to "Dragons" and even the much-debated "Sacrificial Christ Figure." You might be surprised where some of these land!


I'm sharing my thoughts on why certain tropes work well in Christian fiction, where some fall short, and what I hope to see more (or less) of in the genre. Do you agree with my S-tier choices? Or am I way off base?


Let me know YOUR ranking of these Christian fantasy tropes in the comments below! Keep it friendly and let's discuss – because the great thing about books is there's something for everyone!
