Stories give us our sense of who we are and what's important in the world, and our sense of values and direction. Stories like the one about Thomas the Doubter from John's Gospel don't have to be interpreted as a choice between scientific facts and religious faith, but instead teach us about how we can imagine the world differently and how to believe that life can conquer death and love can triumph over hate. Stories about Jesus's resurrection teach us how to rise up again and again to fight for God's justice.
