This moves away from the “right” story verse all other stories being false, and just focuses on how stories help us…maybe different stories help different people…and like you said, God is just wanting us to learn by whichever story helps us individually.
To build a bridge from Tolle to Fowler, I think Heber13 described above the transition from Stage 3 through Stage 5.
Stage 3: Our group’s story versus everyone else’s story
Stage 4: Our new personal “true” story versus everyone else’s story
Stage 5: maybe different stories help different people

Brian, that is brilliant how you connected those dots…that really makes a lot of sense to me (💡 light bulb totally went off in my head). This helps my feeling that I can stayLDS and know that God is working with all His children in or out of the church. Further, He can be working on me in the church with my personal story which may vary with other members of my family or ward. In or out of the church, Stage 5 helps me feel its all good. I can move forward focusing on my situation…and there is so much that becomes less problematic with the Church and my own story.What a great connection…thanks for your words!
