History writing is as much the recording of objective facts as it is the product of subjective worldview. Following their ancient Israelite forbearers, but so unlike historicists, the worldview of early Christians involved the faithful melding of objective fact and subjective worldview. Basic Christian teachings were, similarly, on trajectories that originated in various ancient Israelite myths (which were as trans-historical as they were true). It was such true myths that produced life-giving faith in early Christians. As the faithful "participated in" their sacred stories, they became one with the ongoing work of God. This book concludes with an overview of how Christians might recapture such experience.
