Discover the Next Generation of Christian Storytellers…

This third edition of Voices of the Future weaves together short stories of healing and home in a memorable and heartwarming collection. Experience the next generation’s creativity and vision through tales from rising young creatives.

Featuring Gabriella Banasik

Gabriella Banasik fell in love the moment she heard her first story, opening infinite new worlds. She writes stories filled with fun banter, light overcoming the darkness, and characters who learn they are never alone.

With a pile of throwing knives hidden around her room and an overactive imagination, Gabriella sometimes takes breaks from reading to enjoy boating, traveling the world, and dancing in the kitchen to worship songs.
