p.35 a theologian, regardless of the propositional statements he or she may have to make about a community's
convictions, must consciously and continually strive to keep those statements in intimate contact with the narratives which
gave rise to those convictions, within which they gain their sense and meaning, and from which they have been abstracted.
p.242 Neither 'the facts' nor our 'experiences' come to us in discrete and disconnected
packets which simply await the appropriate moral principle to be applied. Rather, they stand in need of some narrative
which can bind the facts of our experience together into a coherent pattern, and it is thus in virtue of that narrative
that our abstracted rules, principles, and notions gain their full intelligibility.
p.246 what counts as meeting the various conditions of justification will vary from story to story
