Three Thoughts On Story (Leighton Ford)
“Human beings are, in their actions and practice, essentially storytelling animals. I can answer the question ‘What am I do to?’ only if I can answer the prior question ‘Of what story or stories do I find myself a part?'”
-ALASDAIR MACINTYRE
“Life must be lived forwards, but it can be understood only backwards”
-SOREN KIERKEGAARD
“Each of us has a story – what I call a ‘story with a small s’, the story of our lives. At some point in our journey through life, our story collides with the Story of God – the ‘Story with a large S’. God’s Story calls our story into question. We must make a choice: either to reject the Story of God or to merge our story with His Story”
