Sin, Confession, Forgiveness, and Redemption: A Collection of Short Fiction About Failure and Hope

McFaddyn's stories are not only entertaining, but they led me to evaluate my own faith. I found myself nodding my head, frowning, laughing, and at times becoming a bit uncomfortable. Highly recommended! (Louis Smith, The Writing Lab Journal).

In the introduction to this collection, Mark McFaddyn writes that he "always wanted to explore the use of fiction in spiritual growth...Jesus often told stories in order to teach important concepts; it seems a viable method." This unique collection of stories, written over a period of years, were each inspired by a nonfiction project on the topics of sin, confession, forgiveness, and redemption.

Each of the four sections begins with a discussion of each of each topic, accompanied by a notes on each story in the section. Read them for entertainment, read them for growth, or use them in a study group for discussion about the topics.
