Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 9, 2008

Why is so much of God’s word narrative? Why did God chose story to instruct us and call us to Christ? There is power in a story. God’s story has the power to save us.

God has chosen to use a wide range of literary genre as he inspired his Word to us. The gospels are more than historical stories ...read more
