Are there any fans of Christian Fantasy on the thread?

Not Christian fantasists per se, but two fantasy works with overt Catholic/Christian themes that I adore are The Detective of Dreams by Gene Wolfe, and Red as Blood by Tanith Lee.The Wolfe story if you've not read it before is well worth tracking down. It moved me to tears first time I read it.Just lovely.

(Oh, and All Hallow's Eve by Charles Williams (well, pretty much all Charles Williams novels would count as Christian fantasy, but that's considered his masterpiece.)

If you are talking John Bunyan and C. S. Lewis caliber, then yes.
