Very interesting. Am I correct in assuming that these are fictional dialogues, for instructional purposes?
58 and raining. It’s nice to not be freezing in the house, for a change. I need to go to Walmart.
Instructional? Good heavens, no! Who am I to be instructing anyone? This is a story. One day a Pastor where I used to live said, "If I had the gift of healing I would go empty the hospital, not stand in a church and collect an offering." That got me thinking about how it would go if that were to actually happen. This story is the result of those musings turning through my mind.
I like to read the Bible and learn what I can, but I'm no scholar and have no authority or place to be teaching anyone anything.
On the other hand, if this story prompts people to think, that's a good thing. And I'd love to hear those thoughts.
If you haven't been following the story from the beginning, just follow the "reply to" links back to the beginning.
