“Nobody really remembers easy stories. Characters have to face their greatest fears with courage. … There is probably death at stake, inner death or actual death, you know. These polar changes, these happy and sad things in life, are like colors God uses to paint the world. … Somehow we realize that great stories are told in conflict, but we are unwilling to embrace the potential greatness of the story we are actually in. We think God is unjust, rather than a master storyteller.”
- Don Miller, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years
