I caught this Tweet late last week about a conference Donald Miller is doing related to his book “A Million Miles in a Thousand Years.” And it’s about writing a better story for your life, and the ad on his web site says this:

“‘Living a Better Story’ Conference offers you the chance to dialogue with Don and other highly motivated registrants to uncover your personal storyline. You will spend time with Don hearing unpublished insights on how to write a better story for your life and career.”

That’s excellent. And I love how he’s encouraging people to think of their lives in story form, and to make them better. I just quibble with one minor detail: we’re not the only ones with the pen in our hands. In fact, I know some who would say that when we surrendered to Christ we also surrendered the pen. So that we decided to fold our story in to His grand story. And he already wrote the script: death and resurrection.

Am I just being overly critical? Or do you agree that it seems something’s missing there?
