Third Day's Mark Lee on Imagination

"It's so easy within the confines of the church, to take the imagination and throw that out in the place of the 'facts.' And any sense of story, any sense of mystery, gets stifled by folks who feel that literalism is the only approach to the Scriptures. If you really look at the way Christ lived and taught -- through the parables, for one example -- you see how he entrusted these truths, at times actually hid them, in stories so people could discover them on their own, which is powerful."
