What is the difference between voice and style in fiction? Simply put, voice is who we are, our hearts on paper or screen; style is how we express that identity. My writing will never be the same as yours, even if the topic and genre are similar.
In the spiritual realm, we are called upon to live according to Scripture, to pattern our lives after Christ, to strive for holiness. We are unique in who we are in Christ, and so we will be unique in how we express that individuality.
We are not called upon to be alike as followers of Christ (we are, however, called to be united in spirit). God has created us distinct from one another. He has a plan for each of us. We don’t all have the same calling, the same goal, the same mission.
God asks and expects us to be the best we can be. The only way to do that is to match our style to His, to be unique in Him.
