The Drama of ManXulon Press, 2007 - 200 pagini LITERATURE/RELIGION The Crossroad of Faith and Literature Every great story has a hero, love, sacrifice, and a lesson to teach us about ourselves, and all of them point to the greatest story ever told-the Drama of Man. It is the tale we are all acting in, written and directed by the best storyteller who ever lived: God himself. This book is a journey into the heart and mind of the Author of Life. It is an exploration of the Grand Story, the history of God, angels, and men, the Christian experience, and the spiritual battle being waged on the stage of time and eternity. Using his knowledge in theater arts, literature, and storytelling, teacher and author D.M. Yell writes a book that probes and provides answers to the age-old question: What is the meaning of life? He takes us through the entire divine story in a rapid and compelling way to show us that once we have seen the large picture of life, the better will we understand the part we were meant to play. Stories can change our lives; even save our very souls. God is still alive. He is waiting for us to get to know him. D.M. YELL is an English and Drama teacher at Wilson Classical High School in Long Beach, California. He resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Deanna, and their two children, and spends his spare time writing fantasy/adventure and action/adventure novels and screenplays. He has two more up and coming series to look out for in the near future: Mesoz Wars and Renaissance Jack. |
