Touched by a vampire - Beth Felker Jones

Examine the Twilight Saga series through a Biblical lens.

People around the world are asking the
same question, enraptured with Edward and Bella's forbidden romance in the Twilight
Saga, a four-book serial phenomenon written by Stephenie Meyer. The bestsellers tell
the story of a regular girl's relationship with a vampire who has chosen to follow
his "good" side. But the Saga isn't just another fantasy-it's teaching girls about
love, sex, and purpose. With millions of copies sold and several blockbuster films, it is time to ask the important question: Can vampires teach
us about God's plan for love?

Touched by a Vampire is the first book to investigate
the themes of the Twilight Saga from a Biblical perspective. Some Christian readers
have praised moral principles illustrated in the story, such as premarital sexual
abstinence, which align with Meyer's Mormon beliefs. But ultimately, Beth Felker
Jones examines whether the story's redemptive qualities outshine its darkness.

Cautionary,
thoughtful, and challenging, Touched by a Vampire is written for Twilight fans, parents,
teachers, and pop culture enthusiasts. It includes an overview of the series for
those unfamiliar with the storyline and a discussion guide for small groups.
