“If you want people to know the truth, tell them.
If you want people to love the truth, tell them a story.”
― Andrew Peterson

“Since we were made to glorify God, worship happens when someone is doing exactly what he or she was made to do.”

“(which I never cared for, though the covers were killer), Stephen R. Lawhead’s The Pendragon Cycle, Robert Jordan’s The Eye of the World, Terry Brooks’s The Sword of Shannara, and of course, towering above them all, J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings—a book I hadn’t read, which caused my brother no end of consternation. I had seen the animated films seven hundred times, so I didn’t think I needed to read it yet. (Don’t be angry. Tolkien, for me, came later.) But hobbits aside, I stood in the aisle at Waldenbooks and yearned, I tell you.”

“We all forget from time to time, and so we need one another to tell us our stories. Sometimes a story is the only way back from the darkness.”
― Andrew Peterson, The Warden and the Wolf King
