1. What is Leithart's goal in writing this book?
2. Leithart
claims that biblical parallels or "archetypes" can and should be found
in pagan literature. What line of argument does he make (pg 30) concerning creativity?
3. What does Leithart claim is the aspect of being created in God's image that is commonly
forgotten? What are those most commonly mentioned?
4.
What about God's (and man's) "making/creating" is different from that
of the animals? He (and we) create(s) unnecessary things that display an
unnecessary beauty."
5. What is his line of argument that concerns story?
6. What are the three “books” of God?
7.
What is the basic “story” of Scripture that contains all other stories

(pagan) ways?
