The Story Of Humanity As Told By God
The term “myth” has a colloquial understanding of being made up or fake. But that’s not the true meaning of the word. Myths are stories told in a worldview used to relay information to a group and that story is made to stick. This universal concept derives itself from God. God is the source of myth or what’s called the monomyth – the myth of first importance. The story of humanity as told by God tells us why we tell stories. It is also one of the ways we can explain evil.
