About this listen

This dramatic retelling of the gospel illuminates the unique role we can play in the amazing story God is telling.

Sure, good things happen, sometimes beautiful things. But tragic things happen too. What does it mean? We find ourselves in the middle of a story that is sometimes wonderful, sometimes awful, usually a confusing mixture of both, and we haven’t a clue how to make sense of it all. No wonder we keep losing heart.

We need to know the rest of the story.

For when we were born, we were born into the midst of a great story begun before the dawn of time. A story of adventure, of risk and loss, heroism...and betrayal. A story where good is warring against evil, danger lurks around every corner, and glorious deeds wait to be done. Think of all those stories you’ve ever loved. There’s a reason they stirred your heart. They’ve been trying to tell you about the true Epic ever since you were young.

There is a larger story and you have a crucial role to play.

EPIC Insight!

John has not only seen beyond this world, but reveals a glimpse of the eternal plan itself, written by LOVE and HOPE itself. Thank you John!

So Engaging!

I read Waking the Dead and I love that this is kind of a condensed version I can recommend to loved ones that might be unsure about their role in the Story or just anyone who has lost sight of the ending and need a reminder. Loved it!

The Hero's Journey is God's Story

In fiction writing there is a pattern called the Hero's Journey that seemingly all wildly successful epic stories follow. The author does an excellent job of showing how this model applies to most epic of all stories. Starting before this world existed and ending after its final day, he shows how the heart of every human being is hard wired to identify with the story of God.

Beautiful comparisons

The romance and love of our Lord explained and expanded so beautifully; and how much He craves for us to turn to Him in love, voluntarily!!!
