Courage for Your Calling with Kurt Mähler
Manage episode 445825257 series 3559054
Poetic storytelling done well gives prophetic insight for life, providing leaders with encoded wisdom for the decisions they face. I am a storyteller from the nations. I write in the prophetic tradition of the ancients and the poetic tradition of the Inklings.
My considerable cross-cultural experience has brought me to the conclusion that parables, poems, and fables impart personal prophetic insight, especially to leaders who have experienced disappointment in their faith journey.
I am an itinerant Christian-faith advisor who lives near Dubai and serves internationally with experience in about thirty nations. I have written as an author for as many years, but largely privately due to the sensitive nature of some of the nations where I serve.
This fall, I am releasing a six-volume epic Texas tale about a jaguar who remembers the Garden of Eden and enters South Texas. The series is called The Jaguar Oracle.
I draw from twenty years of overseas experience, including eleven years in Afghanistan. (Plenty of stories from those years.) I pour this cross-cultural experience into the traditions of C.S. Lewis and George MacDonald to produce "magical realism" fantasy for a very good story, but more than that: to impart courage, comfort, guidance, and healing.
