Long Story Short
Finding Your Place in God's Unfolding Story
'The universe is made of stories not of atoms,' said American poet Muriel Rukeyser. Whether you agree with this sentiment or not, the fact is: your life tells a story. From beginning to end, your life will create a unique narrative, shaped by the widder stories you find yourself living in.
So what story are you living in?
Exploring the importance of such stories and how these shape our identity, Share Jesus International's Andy Frost humbly presents the ultimate narrative of life, the universe and everything: the God Story.
Contents
1. Every life tells a story
2. Happiness, fear and changing the world
3. Story and Identity
4. This thing called faith
5. The God Story
6. Why I have chosen God story as a framework
7. Our story in his story
8. The Challenge
9. Conclusion

Long Story Short
Y__our life tells a story__.
From beginning to end, your life creates a unique narrative, shaped by the wider stories you find yourself in. For many in the West, the stories that dominate our experience are those of happiness (‘just do what makes you happy’), safety (‘it’s not worth the risk’) and significance (‘I want to be remembered’).
But what if these stories are too small to really matter?
Exploring the importance such stories play in our lives, Andy Frost, Director of Share Jesus International, presents an alternative narrative – the God Story. Long Story Short invites readers to find their place in the only story big enough to live for.
‘This book is invaluable for discovering, or finding again, your story.’
Tim Hughes
‘Andy encourages us to discover a greater narrative that ultimately helps us to find the real meaning for our existence.’
