Fiction and Truth

When Jesus walked this earth, He taught most often by telling stories. We call them "parables." Afterward, He explained to His listeners (or, in some cases, exclusively to His disciples) the parallels and meanings that could be derived from the story. Fiction and Truth follows this effective format. Christian authors tell engaging short stories with memorable characters in fascinating situations. Following each story is a brief "Author's Application" in which the writer suggests how the lessons of the stories can be applied to the reader's daily life.
