The Good News: The Story of God's Redemption Plan - Paperback

by Jackson E. Miller (Author)

What makes a great story? Is it character-building or world-building? The setting or the plot? Perhaps it is the author behind the story or the inspiration for the story. Many factors play a part, but the age-old question remains: What is the greatest story ever told?

While many will argue for the classics such as The Lord of the Rings, by J.R.R Tolkien, or something written by the great William Shakespeare, such as Hamlet, each of these diverse stories-that people worldwide love-have many common attributes. Every great story has incredible characters who go through a character-building process-they do not remain stagnant but grow through their experiences and relationships-as well as characters who do remain stagnant throughout, characters who remain the same and unchanging. Every great story has an overarching plotline that drives the story forward and gives the characters motivation and a mission, and every great story regardless of point-of-view or worldview has a hero. The story of the Bible is no different. We all long or a hero because we have a Hero who came to save us. His name is Jesus.
