Who is God? We begin our story of salvation history with a consideration of that mysterious, almighty, longed-for being who is the source and end of the human drama: God. What is He like? Why did He create? Who is He, and who are we? The Christian narrative begins with these questions, and they will set the stage for those great questions that will define the whole trajectory of the story of the human race: where are we going, and how do we get there?

While the word "myth" has come to mean "untrue account," we mean something quite different. Throughout the long ages of human life and culture, myth has been a way of expressing deep truths. And so, here, "mythic narrative" means "meaningful account." Indeed, it is an account that might be entirely true... or mostly false... or somewhere in between. We know where we stand, but that's for each listener to discover.
