In Storycraft: The Art of Spiritual Narrative, celebrated author Walter Wangerin Jr. illustrates the power of well-told stories and shows how important embracing story is as an essential tool for preaching and teaching the gospel. The book offers a theology of story that is profoundly incarnational as the Word takes on flesh in practiced speech.
V románě Život apoštola Pavla (2000) se autor obrací k životu jednoho z prvních zvěstovatelů evangelia v helénském a latinském světě. Spisovatel nechává zaznít mnohohlas Pavlových současníků, jeho nejbližších přátel a spolupracovníků (Prisca a Aquila,Timotej), ale světcův portrét zároveň nenásilně buduje i jakoby okrajovými poznámkami, například římského filosofa Seneky. Na více než čtyřech stech stranách románu se tak před námi postupně vynořuje plastický portrét této nejednoduché postavy z prvního století křesťanských dějin. Wangerinova kniha je vystavěna nejen s porozuměním Pavlovu poselství a životu prvotních křesťanů, ale též s hlubokou znalostí antického světa.
Mit „Jesus“ hat Walter Wangerin - nach dem Bestseller „Das Buch von Gott“ und „Paulus“ - seinen dritten biblischen Roman geschrieben. Darin wird die wichtigste Geschichte des Christentums erzählt: Die Geschichte von Jesus. Poetisch, lebensprall, voller Emotion, drastisch, packend, aufwühlend, reich an historischen Details und immer dicht an der biblischen Überlieferung.
