Formed through story by time

Stories have the power to evoke empathy and compassion by bringing statistics to life through personal narratives. The Bible, as a story of the world, provides both intellectual credibility and emotional healing. Consistency is crucial for stories to shape individuals. Studies show that reading novels can greatly influence a person's empathy and compassion. The impact of novels on formation is attributed to the time spent engaging with the story, which is more profound than consuming stories through films or television series.
