Bucket Full of Grace

Introduction I’ve been reading a classic Russian Fiction called “The Brothers Karamazov” and it is a DEEP story.  I’m seeing things in it that go way beyond a normal novel.  We would all agree that there are good stories and bad stories and not necessarily good because they make us feel good, there are stories that are very good that make us cry and rethink our lives, so it’s not obvious what we mean by good right away.  There is a measure of depth in a story that we can all fundamentally understand.  There is a hierarchy of depth to stories and you could say that the deeper the story goes, the more fundamental truth and meaning it holds, the more it shows us what we already knew to be true but we just couldn’t articulate, [I feel this way when I read CS Lewis, which is why we named our second son after him when I read CS Lewis its like yes, finally, the thing that I have been struggling to put words to, there it is!] the deeper the story the more it undergirds our own consciousness an
