131 – When Fear Blurs the Truth with Jaime Jo Wright
What happens when fear blurs the truth of God’s Word?
In this episode of the Bold Faith Now podcast, Missy chats with award-winning Christian fiction author Jaime Jo Wright about writing fiction novels that aren’t afraid to explore darkness, fear, and uncertainty while still pointing readers toward the hope and truth found in Jesus.
In this episode, Missy and Jaime discuss:
-
Why Gothic storytelling draws Jaime and how she uses it to guide readers toward the light of Christ
-
How The Bookshop of 99 Doors explores fear, uncertainty, and what happens when we lose sight of unchanging truth
-
What bold faith looks like for a Christian novelist writing about topics that may stretch readers outside their comfort zones
-
Why Christians need to stay grounded in Scripture as they engage with books, entertainment, culture, and conflicting ideas about truth
This conversation reminds us that while stories may lead us through dark and uncertain places, God’s truth remains steady. As Christ-followers, we don’t have to fear hard questions when we know where to turn for answers.
Remember to live boldly for Jesus and let your light shine bright for Him!

Welcome Friends!
My name is Missy, and I love Jesus!
I am a Christ-follower, wife, mom, author, speaker, Colson Fellow, and host of the Bold Faith Now podcast. My heart is to encourage believers to live boldly for Jesus in a world that often tells us to stay quiet, blend in, or keep our faith tucked safely in the shadows.
Through writing, speaking, and podcasting, I help believers grow in bold faith, stand firm in truth, and view the world through a biblical worldview. Because following Jesus was never meant to be passive. It is a call to shine His light, speak truth with grace, and take the next obedient step.
My prayer is simple: to point others to Jesus, encourage bold faith, and remind believers that now is the time to live courageously for Him. Join the Bold Faith community and listen to the podcast for encouragement to live out your faith with conviction, clarity, and courage.
