Humans are story-shaped creatures.
We make sense of our world, pattern our lives, and reflect on what is
ultimately significant through language and the words that compose our
stories. But how does this relate to the narrative of the Bible and the
story that God is writing through history?
In Nourishing Narratives, writer and professor Jennifer Holberg
engages with words from the likes of Dante, Gerard Manley Hopkins,
Flannery O'Connor, Marilynne Robinson, and more while also offering some
of her own stories to reflect on the importance of story to our lives
and our faith.
Here, readers are encouraged not only to understand how stories nourish
our faith, but to discover how our stories are part of God's great
story.
