Publisher's summary

"Unique and powerful, The Story of With will take readers deep into the discovery of their own identity. Bravo! This fascinating blend of storytelling and teaching will shift the thinking of all who take this journey." (New York Times best-selling author Ted Dekker)

"Through allegory and invitation, Allen Arnold ushers us into a journey of imagination, insight, wonder, and wisdom...Read The Story of With!" (New York Times best-selling coauthor of Captivating Stasi Eldredge)

"This is your invitation into deeper identity, intimacy, and imagination with God. Like finding the place you've always longed to be. The moment you finish this book, you'll race to grab one for a friend. Highest Recommendation!" (Best-selling author of The Long Journey to Jake Palmer, James L. Rubart)

"Allen has written a roadmap for dreaming with God. The Story of With is a beautiful, revelatory parable, filled with wonder, mystery, and adventure." (Author of Prone to Love and Untamed, Jason Clark)

"You are not alone. Whether you’re a free spirit, an office exec, a writer, musician, college student, or tired parent - your soul, like mine, knows life is meant to go beyond rat races and rare applause. This book speaks to that belief. And if you’re not careful, you may find tears warming your eyes as you read because finally someone is naming your weariness, your striving, your questions of why you just can’t quite make it, or the emptiness that hit because maybe you did. It is into those places The Story of With reaches - fusing allegory with application - to offer fresh perspective, restored hope, and a rebirth of creativity.” (From the foreword by Mary Weber, Christy and Carol Award-winning, Scholastic Pick author of the Storm Siren trilogy)

Incredibly special Story!!!

This was a journey leading me to my heart’s home!! The entire experience was delightful. Healing tears at times, other times deep love and delight. Thank you for using your beloved uniqueness to write this book! Praise to the Father for His display of greatness in you! I am in awe as I let this journey sink in to my soul at how perfect God’s story is in even leading me to this book at this time in my life!

Deep into my heart, a simple piercing message

The format of the story got past so much of the resistance to the cliche and brought me into a world where I was able to receive simple and profound truths in a fresh way that are challenging me in my relationship with God for the better. I am excited to continue my “story with God”.

The Story of With Audible review

The performances for this Audible recording were varied and deep, much like the written story itself. I enjoyed hearing the different nuances and voices that were imbued throughout the book, for both real and fictional people, with deep emphasis on the book's deepest lessons, slow enough to know its importance, but strong enough to make a lasting impression. Job well done to all!
