Why I Dyed My Hair Purple and Other Unorthodox Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798988870241)

Can creative works reveal biblical truth?

As a senior in college, Kori Morgan, who had spent most of her life as an atheist, became a Christian. But as a fiction writer who had grown up in a family where the arts and creativity were celebrated, she began to ask questions about how these crucial elements of her background and personality related to her newfound belief in the truths of the Bible.

In the coming years of walking with Jesus, Kori discovered that the Lord had always been using her favorite works of literature, film, and music to teach her about himself. In the present day, he continued to guide her through struggles with depression and spiritual abuse, using both the stories in his Word and those that captured her imagination to reveal his presence in the midst of hardship.

This collection of essays poignantly reveals how God speaks through creative works of all kinds and draws us closer to him in the midst of our living, learning, and working out of our faith.

"With equal measures of honesty and good cheer, Kori Morgan tells the compelling story of how God wooed her through the arts." -Jonathan Rogers, author and host of The Habit Membership for Writers
