Stories do not merely inform and educate us; they inspire our imaginations and shape our desires—telling us not only of evil in the world but how evil can be defeated by good. They ignite our imaginations. Even more, they help us make sense of the world and who we are called to be. The Church also has stories, and we do well to tell them over and over again, as we drink deeply of the stories of Scripture and open our hearts and imaginations to God’s Word. We don’t merely hear stories; we tell them, too.
