THE MAP The Way of All Great Men

David Murrow uses fiction, in Part One, and nonfiction, in Part Two, to recount the story of a map hidden in the biblical book of Matthew. He believes that the Apostle Paul embedded the map and that all great men of history have followed it, even Christ. The map includes three journeys that great men make; these journeys of submission, strength, and sacrifice lead to Christian maturity. Wayne Shepherd guides the listener through the maze of Murrow's "map." His ability to convey complex biblical contradictions with credible explanations is refreshing. However, even Shepherd's absorbing narration can't overcome the feeling that one is listening to two different books. The combination of fiction and nonfiction does not work well.
