  1. Dan B. Allender _ To Be Told: Know Your Story,

    Desire lies at the heart of who God made us to be, who we are at our core. Desire is both our greatest frailty and the mark of our highest beauty. Our desire completes us as we become One with our Lover, and it separates us from Him and brings death as it wars against His will.

  2. Dan B. Allender _ To Be Told: Know Your Story,

    The shattering {of shalom} moves us from a place of shalom to a place that is harsh and unrelenting. The shattering brings us a keen awareness that we are alone and in danger. We are on our own.

  3. Dan B. Allender _ To Be Told: Know Your Story,

    A denouement is not a complete or fully resolved ending but a satisfying closure to a story. {in French translates 'an untying, a relaxing of a knot of complexity'}Denouement is the rest that comes when all the disparate plot lines of a story, gnarled and taut, have been untied and an order has come about that brings a new moment of shalom.

  5. Dan B. Allender _ To Be Told: Know Your Story,

    We're in the presence of a good story when the flaw that shatters shalom is also the doorway to redemption... Whether it be our own flaw or the sin of others, God uses the raw material of sin to create the edifice of his redeemed glory.The point cannot be overemphasized: your plight is also your redemption. The Bible assumes that its stories are also our story... We are Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Their stories are a paradigm of our own. Each of us is called, redeemed, and exiled - again and again.
