The Story of Everything

Based on the biblical Timothy, this book details the struggle of one man to reconcile the God of his people with the events of his life. For as long as he can remember, his mother and grandmother have told him the stories of God, but that God seems so far away in this pagan land. As Timothy learns to apply the stories of his faith, he begins to understand the nature of God. However, not everything turns out as he expects.
Timothy finds himself wrapped in the middle of a plot that threatens to disrupt everything that he believes. Will his faith in God resist the trials ahead? More than just a biblical fiction, this book paints the grand narrative of God. On the surface, drawn in black and white, we find the story of a young man, Timothy, who finds faith. Within his story, revealed in vivid colors, is the story of the God who calls everyone to Him.
This is the story of everything. "This story tightly weaves together the panorama of the Bible. By focusing on Timothy as a young man, we begin to deeply care for him and what he learns and applies to his own life over time. It is a well-told story of the Gospel and spiritual transformation. While this is technically biblical fiction, it never deters from the non-fictional Truth we find in God's Word.
Could it have happened this way? Why not?  Enjoy the journey and its characters through Eric Schrock's capable writing skills and passionate concern for, well, everything that can deepen your faith in Jesus Christ." -Mark Snowden, author of Truth that Sticks "I am very impressed with Schrock's creative portrait of Timothy's life. There is more than imagination here, for the author combines historical data from the New Testament with what we know of the first-century world.
In addition, he manages to expound the biblical message by bringing together copious material from the Old Testament that surely would have formed Timothy's spiritual development. This novel should be especially helpful to Christians who are young in their faith, but mature believers can learn much from it as well. Moreover, the book can serve as an effective evangelistic tool, gently introducing readers to the gospel.
Highly recommended." -Moisés Silva, retired seminary professor and author of numerous books
