A friend of mine has written a book! I think I will pick this one up for some summer reading: I'm so excited to announce that my first book, Why God Created the World: A Jonathan Edwards Adaptation , is being released by Navpress this week! Here's the first paragraph: "...For most of my life, I never thought to ask myself why God created the world. I had asked myself the question, 'why did God create me specifically,' which seemed like a more practical thing to wonder. But the answers I found to that question always struck me as shallow. I think that’s because it’s impossible to understand what part we play in a story if we have never grasped what the story is about in the first
