BOOK REVIEW | The Story: Recapture the Mystery
The story of God’s plan for human beings has been played out for thousands of years. Steven James in his own unique way retells the ultimate story of all time in his latest book. Mixing prose with poetry, James, a professional storyteller and dramatist, takes the reader on a journey from Creation to Christ’s birth to his death and finally his resurrection.
I chose to read this book during the Lent season and found it great to use as a devotion. I’m not really a fan of poetry, but I enjoyed the flow of James’ simple poetry along with his thoughtful, refreshingly humorous writing style. I have been a little disappointed lately in how so many nonfiction Christian living books seem to say the same thing over and over again. Sometimes we don’t need another seven steps or another how to, but just a reminder that God’s plan is perfect even in all it’s mystery. If you are seeking a different reading experience from the usual, I highly recommend The Story: Recapture the Mystery.
