Introduction to Douglas Love Storyteller

It took me a while to figure this out, nearly 50 years. Apparently I'm a slow learner. But, better late than never! What I came to understand is that Jesus is really serious in his offer to grant 'abundant life' to His people. After living as a sincere, serious Christian for a long time, Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see that "I have come that you might have life, even life abundant!" (John 10:10) is Jesus' goal for all people! In order to learn to live in abundant life, I had to let go of lesser things that were actually substitutes that religion offers. That was painful. What if I were wrong? What if... Anyway, I'm more than glad to say that anything that I let go of was in reality of zero value in my life, and that the things that He has revealed to me over the past decade or so have been vastly superior! I've even developed a motto that helps me to keep a clear head (most of the time), "If it doesn't contribute to life, I'm not interested." You cannot even imagine how much nonsense I've avoided when I ask that simple question. Here's the thing, I believe that YOU are designed to live abundantly. And since I don't have a pulpit anymore (for which we should all be glad), I'm discovering that writing fictional tales allows me to creatively express what God is doing in my heart. I hope you'll find encouragement here to take up Jesus on his offer.
