Lightly Salted Stories

Our postmodern world, for all its claims of openness and progressiveness, is surprisingly closed and myopic. Many of the post-modern era have grown up with a staggeringly limited perspective; it is difficult to even consider such paradigm-shattering ideas as absolute truth, the worth of every individual, or the existence of a meta-reality.

Perhaps these stories can help. This book contains eleven little tales that can jolt the reader out of his or her paradigm by creating an unfamiliar environment or a challenging situation. Each story is followed by discussion questions, suitable for opening up a dialogue about assumptions and a vision for other perspectives.
