The Story of Everything
May 05, 2024 | Steve Bryan
Everyone loves a good story. Stories are so much a part of life that we take them for granted. In fact, there is hardly a moment in a day that we aren't telling a story, if not to someone else, then to ourselves. One could almost say that our lives are stories. This is not to suggest that events don't matter. They do. And some more than others. But to know that something happened is not to know what it means. For that, we need a story. Anyone with a passing familiarity with Scripture will know it has a lot of stories. In fact, there are so many stories, it is easy to think of the Bible as a book of stories, with a few other bits tucked in between. But we can only truly understand what Scripture is, what life is, and what are lives mean when we understand how all the parts of Scripture work together to tell a single story—the life of God, the story of everything.
