The Story
“The Story” is a congregation-wide, 31 week, journey through God’s Word... from September 18, 2011 to May 27, 2012.
There’s a new story unfolding. People in churches and in homes everywhere are experiencing God’s word in a whole new way. The Story provides all the tools needed to draw our congregation, small group, and your family into the grand, unfolding story of the Bible as one sweeping narrative, arranged chronologically from Genesis to Revelation.
Condensed into 31 accessible chapters, The Story uses the text of the NIV Bible, to allow the stories, poems, and teachings of the Bible to read like a novel.
And like any good story, The Story is filled with intrigue, drama, conflict, romance, redemption, and God’s incredible grace and mercy for all people — and this story is true!
•Bible Classes ~ All our Sunday school and adult Bible study classes will be working through The Story. Age-appropriate curriculum will be used to guide all ages through the 31 chapters of The Story.
• Small Groups ~ A couple different small group sets of study material will be available for our small group leaders to use. Also, our Genesis classes and Elementary school chapel services will also tie into The Story.
• Sermons ~ Listen for references to the week’s reading in Pastor Sattler’s and Pastor McClean’s sermons.
• Devotions ~ There are three devotions for every week of The Story. A set of personal devotions, as well as a set of family devotions will be available for your use.
