Which story are you in?

Last updated on: May 28, 2014 at 10:27 am   By Dan Wilkinson

Trying to identify the story we are in is not merely an act of idle speculation, a meaningless and esoteric thought experiment. For Lewis (and McGrath), the story we choose to inhabit is vitally important because it “determines what we think about ourselves and consequently how we live.” Read more

“Noah” in a nutshell: Watchers lose, love wins

Last updated on: May 28, 2014 at 10:27 am   By Dan Wilkinson

Sink or swim, “Noah” is a story worth retelling

Last updated on: May 28, 2014 at 10:27 am   By Dan Wilkinson

The story of Noah and his ark isn't in the Bible to teach us about shipbuilding or ancient floods or animal care on the high seas. It's there to tell us something about God and our relationship with him. Will Aronofsky's story do the same? Or will that meta-narrative be subsumed by the spectacle of six-armed Watchers engaged in epic battle? Read more

Is “So don’t be gay” missing from my Bible’s translation of the Sodom and Gomorrah story?

Last updated on: May 28, 2014 at 10:29 am   By John Shore
