260. How Do Great Stories Show Both Law and Grace?

Shallow fictions insult the work of Christ by implying we can cheapen the law to make ourselves better, or cheapen grace to save others.

#GreatStories:

I love novelist John le Carré’s definition of #storytelling.

“‘The cat sat on a mat’ is not a story,” he said. “‘The cat sat on *the dog’s* mat’ is a story.”

Indeed, very often, great stories start with conflict.
