“Fantasy stories open our eyes to an unseen world and train our minds to see beyond the visible. In the New Testament context, this is where our real battles are fought. Good fantasy will reveal the hidden powers of evil that threaten the hero's life and upset his journey. Good fantasy focuses on how a hero finds victory when he learns that he can't win by himself, so he submits to the higher power in faith and obedience.” WorldMindRealStoriesEyeEvilWinningFantasyJourneyHeroVictoryHigherBattleTrainObedienceUpsetVisibleSubmitTestamentUnseenNew TestamentHigher PowerCan't WinFantasy Stories Author:Bryan Davis

“We do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world. The lives that you admire, the attitudes that seem noble to you, have not been shaped by a paterfamilias or a schoolmaster, they have sprung from very different beginnings, having been influenced by evil or commonplace that prevailed round them. They represent a struggle and a victory.” WorldDifferentSeemsLastsEvilViewsAttitudeStruggleJourneyVictoryRegardRoundsPoint Of ViewNobleAdmireWildernessSparesCommonplaceSprung Author:Marcel Proust
“I don't think we have all the words in a single vocabulary to explain what we are or why we are. I don't think we have the range of emotion to fully feel what someone else is feeling. I don't think any of us can sit in judgment of another human being. We're incomplete creatures, barely scraping by. Is it possible--from the perspective of this quickly spinning Earth and our speedy journey from crib to coffin--to know the difference between right, wrong, good, and evil? I don't know if it's even useful to try.” IfsThinkingKnowsFeelsTryingHumansFeelingsEarthEvilDifferencesHuman BeingsEmotionJourneyPerspectiveCreaturesJudgmentRangeGood And EvilVocabularySpinningIncompleteCoffinsScrapingRange Of Emotions Author:Alexandra Fuller
