The Bible As Autobiography

One reasson many people find Scripture to be so regenerative is that, fundamentally, it is a story - one told by many different voices. All of its author's were confronted by a Person. And in course of that encounter, whether it lasted a moment or over a lifetime, each storyteller was changed by that other Voice. He or she was transformed by a God who would not be limited by the left-brain, logical, linar theology; reconstructed by a God who in the beginning, got his hands dirty in the soil of creation. At length about them bloodied in the agony and the the of redemption.

God knows that unless I'll right brain is transformed and our neural networks are integrated from left to right and from Boston to talk, we will remain in the narrow, constricting, well with you and do grooves of the networks. We have formed the old our lifetimes, and that we so often help create in our children.
