Eric: One trick I've heard from, I know, our friends over at BiggerPockets, that's a big real estate site, some of our friends over there they stories about how when they get they buy one property that they live in so it can be their primary residence and they can get that best mortgage rate.

A few weeks ago, I was talking about how life was a big story and one of my friends leaned over and wrote «choose your own adventure» in my notebook.

A person's story can be told in multiple ways — but how you tell it makes a big difference to everyone's understanding of the truth.

In a time when stories were passed on verbally and people had no idea of how the world worked and so wanted their «god» to be bigger and better than the next man's god, the stories just got better and bigger and more far fetched.

Then light was liberated, and then gravity created the first stars and galaxies, then billions of years later, a local star went supernova and seeded the local nebula with heavier elements, elements necessary for life, elements that were not created during the Big Bang, then the sun was born, then the planets coalesced, and billions of years later some primate wrote a story about how the Earth was created at the same time as the rest of the universe, getting it wrong because that primate did not have the science nor technology to really understand what happened, so he gave it his best guess, most likely an iteration of an older story told prior to the advent of the Judeo Christian religion.

We need a God we can manage, perhaps, one that fits into our story instead of orienting ourselves around how we fit in the bigger story.

Rediscovering my Methodist roots and the stories of the Wesley brothers and sister really show how far off movements become once they get too big.

At night, I picture God, in his love without condition, standing over us while we sleep, clutching his heart over how beautiful we are, longing for more and better for us, knowing us better than we know ourselves, seeing a bigger picture, longing for a deeper relationship and loving us so much that it takes over the entire story.
