FINDING YOUR STORY IN GOD’S STORY
The Story is a book of selections from the Bible, arranged chronologically, that reads like a novel. As you read through it, you will see how the Bible is full of intrigue and plot twists. Kings, queens, and regular people. Wars, rejection, betrayal, and silence. But also faith, hope, and love.
Our journey through The Story begins October 23, 2022.
During this 31-week experience, every member of the family is invited to explore this rich story in Sunday School, CATCH, Small Groups, and the Sunday services. We will be providing books and other resources to you, all we ask is that you use them.
As we prepare for this exciting season of learning and growing, we invite you to dedicate some prayer time over the next 40 days.
If you would like to receive daily prayer prompts from Woody Nook during the 40 Days of Prayer leading up to The Story which begins October 23, please sign up by clicking here.
Pray that God will . . .
. . . touch our hearts with His Story of love
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. [John 3:16-17 NIV]
. . . train our hearts as we share His Story with one another
I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. [Eph. 1:17-19 NIV]
. . . transform our hearts to live His Story in the world
And God has given us the privilege of urging everyone to come into his favor and be reconciled to him. … This is the wonderful message He has given us to tell others. We are Christ’s ambassadors. [2 Cor. 5:18b-20 LB]
