Because Both Sides Are in the Story

Sharing Options

“Narrative theology is important — crucial in fact. But when it becomes apparent that it is important in this world of war, both sides will attempt to seize it, and will use it to their own ends. This is why it is as silly to assume that someone is a postmodernist because he emphasizes story as it would be to assume that someone was a Union solder because [he] was on the field at Gettysburg, and had a gun. Right, he did, but which way was it pointed?” (Rules for Reformers, p. 153).
