Finding Yourself in the Story
Story is powerful. We all have a story. Where you were born. Where you grew up. Your faith story. Your family history. All of these elements and characters from your life make up your story. From a faith perspective, one of the challenges that we have is to find ways to connect with what our faith is saying and to put that into action. In May and June, we are going to be trying to do that. We will explore various biblical characters and delve a little into their stories in hopes of finding a little of ourselves. Their journeys. Their sacrifices. Their dilemmas. All of those things we can read, learn from and resonate with. We'll journey with Samuel, Rebekah, Peter, Gideon, Isaac, Cornelius and others. Each week we will ponder their relationship with God and how God worked through each of them. As we do, we will ask "where do we find ourselves in these stories?"
