I’m in the process of writing another book with the working title of The Storyteller. The book’s theme is analogies to help us know God better and understand theological concepts in general. As with my other books, it will be based on previous website posts and sermons. The links below form the original source material which I’m rewriting into a higher quality, readable form. I hope to have the book ready to publish by the end of 2025.
The Storyteller
These six audio messages are from a series called God The Author. They present an analogy to help both believers and non-believer better understand the nature attributes of God. I plan to include more on this subject in the book. (Pardon the audio quality which varies considerably, and I’m not the best speaker.)
This part covers how to understand the nature of God using the analogy of an author writing a story. It contains the introduction to the analogy, followed by how the analogy can be used to understand God’s preexistence, His separateness from creation, how He created everything from nothing, His omnipresence, and His omniscience.
This last part answers the question: What about free will? If we are characters in a story written by God, how can we have free will? Or, if we have free will, how can God be in control of His story?
The Parables of Jesus
These are from a series of messages on the parables of Jesus.
This presents the purpose for Jesus’ parables and how to understand them. This will be the first part of the book as it also serves as a good introduction to ‘The Storyteller.’
These are older previously posted writings on my website that use analogies to illustrate biblical truths. It is likely some of these will not make it into book.
