Status Updates From Story: Recapture the Mystery

Pg. 119: “I think the most successful lies are the ones that lie closest to the truth. They’re the hardest ones to spot because they look so much like truth that they slip past us unnoticed. Then, choice by choice, we edge closer and closer to the forbidden. Through little lies satan makes rebellion sound so reasonable and compromise seem like no big deal.”

I have known Steven James as a fiction writer for several years, and have enjoyed many of his books. This book, Story, is Christian non-fiction, and it is fabulous. I borrowed it from the library in March, and about 50 pages in, I knew this was a book I needed to highlight and annotate. I bought my own copy and am enjoying it’s unique blend of Scripture, musings from the author, and poetry immensely.
