#651 - Excerpt from Epic, The Story God is Telling by John Eldredge

"Rescuing the human heart is the hardest mission in the world.  The dilemma of the Story is this: we don't know if we want to be rescued.  We are so enamored with our small stories and our false gods, we are so bound up in our addictions and our self-centeredness and take-if-for-granted unbelief that we don't even know how to cry out for help.  And the Evil One has no intention of letting his captives walk away scott-free.  He seduces us, deceives us, assaults us - whatever it takes to keep us in darkness."
