Inspirational Fiction involves stories that, while not overtly religious, feature a religious or spiritual perspective. It encompasses many other genres from Romance to Mysteries to Chick Lit. Inspirational fiction is a broader genre than Christian fiction in that it includes other faiths in addition to Christianity.
