Everything else

the long version

Here are stories about life, faith and our world. They're stories about people -- some famous and others unknown. Some of these folks are in the Bible -- others might live in your neighborhood. Some are kings and presidents, some are prophets and disciples and some are athletes and soldiers. Others are just ordinary people discovering what it means to live in this world as it is. These are stories about hope and despair, joy and sadness, and triumph and tragedy. They are stories about love and longing, life and death, fear and courage, and about heaven and hell. They're also about history, politics and current events; about the Bible, theology and the Church. Whoever you are, whatever you do, wherever you live, if you are a Christian, your faith touches every area of your life. These stories remind us that to know Jesus Christ -- to desire to be his true follower -- is not just to see him more clearly. It is, through Christ, to see everything else.
