This past summer I found purpose, refuge and spiritual
growth in Finding Jesus in Literature. My initial plans and expectations for
the blog were very little. I did not expect many people to read my thoughts on
books or faith, but in the midst of this journey the Lord exceeded my
expectations
(like He always does).
I would have never expected that Finding Jesus in Literature
would reach places like Russia, Poland and Laos.
The Internet’s crazy y’all!!!
I pray that the blog made a significant impact on you as it
did for me. I hope the characters and storylines were relatable to you and
their fictional situations caused you to look at your life a bit differently.
These seemingly secular characters actually exposed the REAL Jesus in my eyes.
Each character showed a different side of our magnificent and omnipresent God.
Finding Jesus in Literature grew to become way more personal
than I predicted, but I’ve learned that in order to get to the heart of who
Jesus is- you yourself have to reveal your heart as well.
We as a generation have the ability to expose Jesus in all
genres. In my mind Jesus’ presence is unquestionably, without a doubt alive in
the (what we call) secular world.
I pray something will stir in our hearts and causes us to
acknowledge His presence that knows no boundaries.
I pray it’s something that ignites within us.
& encourages us.
Perhaps all we need is a little gumption!
