Theological Review: Kathy Keller, M.A. Theological Studies, Gordon Conwell Seminary

I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to those without whom

I could not have done this book. To Dr. Timothy Keller,

whose teaching informs every story and from whom I have

liberally borrowed: for his wisdom; for giving me a vocabu-

lary of faith; for opening my eyes to the wonder of Grace.

To my parents who first told me The Story, as a four year

old and to Hanmer who embodied it. To all my friends at

Zondervan the amazing Kris, and especially to my

editor, Catherine, who caught the vision and kept it alive.

To our dedicated outside team Julie and Linda. To the

utterly brilliant Jago what a privilege to work with you.

(Im your biggest fan.) To the Keiths, the Brownes, Paul for

always giving me a warm place to write. To Todd and Laura

and my endlessly patient family and friends you know who

you are! who talked me off ledges and prayed for me. And,

of course, everything to the One who is my Life all the

praise goes to Him. SLJ

Tis not that I did choose Thee,

For Lord, that could not be;

This heart would still refuse Thee,

Hadst Thou not chosen me

My heart owns none before Thee,

For Thy rich grace I thirst;

This knowing, if I love Thee,

Thou must have loved me first.

Josiah Conder, 1836

From the New Testament

T A B L E O F

C O N T E N T S

Jesus said, I am the Beginning and the Ending.

Revelation 22:13 (paraphrase)

Beginning with Moses and all the Prophets,

Jesus explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures

concerning himself.

Luke 24:27 (NIV)

Jesus said, God loved the people of the world so much

that he gave his only Son.

So that anyone who believes in him

will have eternal life and never really die.

He did not send his Son into the world to punish people.

He sent him to rescue them.

John 3:16 17 (paraphrase)

Q U O T A T I O N S

Jesus said, I am the light that has come into the world.

No one who believes in me will stay

in the dark hiding anymore.

John 12:46 (paraphrase)

The Sovereign Lord will wipe away

all the tears from all the faces.

Isaiah 25:8

I had always felt life first as a story:

and if there is a story there is a story-teller.

G K Chesterton

J ESUS FRIENDS WERE ARGUING.

Who was the most

important helper in Gods kingdom? They wanted to know.

I am! James said.

No, youre not! said Peter. I am!

Nonsense, Matthew said. Im the cleverest!

No, youre not!

Yes, I am!

Yes! No! Am, too!

This silliness went on and on like that for some time.

You see, Jesus friends had started thinking they had

to do something to make themselves special to Jesus

that if they were the cleverest or the nicest or something,

Jesus would like them best.

Jesus and the children, from Matthew 18, 19, Mark 10, Luke 18

But they had forgotten something. Something God

had been teaching his people all through the years: that no
