Lost in the Pages: A Character's View of Life
'Lost in the Pages' suggests that God does not have plans for our lives-he is telling stories. Like stories, our lives are full of conflicts and surprise plot twists. Like characters in a novel, none of us knows what is going to happen next, or why. We do not know whether we are on page three or three hundred. We are lost, not only on the pages of our little stories, but somewhere upon the pages of the Big Story that the Author is telling through the cosmos. If we are characters in a story God is telling, then how should we live? Lost in the Pages asks what it means to live as a character. How do we make sense of our lives? Why are they so hard, and joy so elusive? What does it mean to live in the present tense? Are we free to choose, or have our futures already been written? Can we talk to the Author? And how will our stories end? 'Lost in the Pages' is a call to hear the tale of the protagonist of all our tales: the Author-made-character who promises a never-ending story to those will believe it, and follow him.
