Discovering salvation through the triune God’s story
The Bible’s purpose is to narrate the story of the triune God—with Christ’s resurrection as the pivot on which everything turns. The Bible invites us to locate our own lives, and everything, in that story. This story of everything, rooted in the love that is God, includes twists and turns, suffering and hope, tragedy and triumph, and the promise of salvation so that, as Julian of Norwich notes, “all shall be well.”
