Product Description

▼▲

"Dan Allender calls us to recognize that our lives, which often seem random, have a brilliant, divine coherence. Under his expert tutelage we discover how to discern God's hand on our lives and how to tell the story to ourselves and others."
-Tremper Longman III, author of How to Read the Psalms and coauthor of The Cry of the Soul and Bold Love.

According to Allender, your life is full of stories. Some are joyful, others painful; some take place over years, others in a moment. These stories and your response to them add color, shape, and texture to "you." If you're looking to make sense of who you are, the stories of your life need examining. Rather than passively allowing your stories to define you, this companion workbook for To Be Told will help you engage your stories honestly and open the door for God to transform and redeem them. The exercises in this workbook encourage you to write your stories, wrestle with them, and find God behind them.
