Is it possible to make a Christian novel for a secular audiences?

Make it a satire,poke fun at hypocrites,legalists,church busybodies,etc.You will find no bigger absurdities than some people and situations within the church of christianity.In my younger days I attended a small Baptist Church in the country that at one time had its own 'Swingers Club' within it.The 'Club' was led by the Pastor and his wife.Back everything up with scripture.The biggest devils hide in pew's.
 
One alternative would be to have a minor character explain or defend biblical Christianity from those hostile to Christianity and those distorting it.
In order to retain readers interest would be to involve theology in the plot.
 
Hey All,
Read "The Pilgrim's Progress" a Book by John Bunyan.

Read it.

It is certainly possible.

Keep walking everybody.
May God bless,

I am interested to know, since I might do that in the future.
I believe the answer to the question is: Yes it is possible. Why? I have two reasons: 1. All things are possible with God and 2. There are secular songs with Christian lyrics, so Christian words for secular readers is also possible. An example of a secular song with Christian lyrics is a classic tune called "Put Your Hand In The Hand". I play that whenever the opportunity presents itself for that reason.
