with fresh expressions through a poem or vignette. This tender place offers a priceless gift, a moment to stop and feel humanity to our bones, to let ourselves have the moment to feel what we feel, to express it in words and realize the wonder that weaves through it all.
My thoughts had pondered here and there about a longer story. Dare I say, a novel? While I grinned at the wildness of that idea, I didn’t foresee the now reality of The Undoing of Saint Silvanus. But over time, a story began to take life in my thoughts. These people had real lives, and their hurts entered my hurts, along with their stories, their histories, their challenges, and their victories still to come. They became more than a book, more than a story to me.

Until one day, a few years ago, I just kind of got in a spot. Something had happened that I could not tell. You see, that’s the thing. Some of our stories involve other people who really don’t want their laundry hung out in front of the church.
If we really knew one another’s full stories, we would be slack jawed.
It was one of those times when some things revved up, and when I was muted for a while in one way, good stories started coming out all over the place. Because sometimes you really can’t tell your story; you need to make one up!
The made-up stories may not be real, but they can still be true. They can sometimes give us a picture of our own lives in ways that a journal entry or a blog post just can’t. And so The Undoing of Saint Silvanus is my made-up story that explains some very real things that we all deal with every day. It was an outlet for me to try to express something that I want to share with you from the Word of God. In this novel, a family has been blown apart; Satan wants to dismantle their lives and keep them constantly off balance. And I want you to see this principle in Scripture. I’m very, very committed to my calling to teach, and as long as God will let me, I will write Bible studies and teach Bible studies for the rest of my life. But this story was a grace gift from God, a tremendous journey for me to see this story and this idea set free and to see where it would go. And that is the idea that we’re going to study together—the undoing.
Drawing of the Saint Sans gateWHAT THE ENEMY HAS DONE
I don’t know what your family was like. I don’t know what you’ve come from. I probably come from something a lot like you do, and that is a mixture of the good, the bad, and the ugly. And a lot of those things balanced out. There was a lot of good . . . but sometimes the ugly is just so ugly. And if you’ll let me push a little bit further, it’s not only so ugly, but the ugly happened so early that your whole personality began to develop around all of that ugliness. There’s a lot of good
