The Story

The Bible tells the greatest and most important story of all time. It is the story of the one true God and His children. It is the story of the God who speaks; the God who acts; the God who listens; the God who sacrificed; the God who forgives. It is the story of redemption and new life. It is the story of God.

We want to know the Bible as understandable and fascinating. We want to experience the transformational message of the Bible as we learn and re-learn the story of God. Beginning in September we are going to do just that.

Join us.

What is The Story?

The book called The Story is an abridged chronological NIV Bible. There are no verse references in the text, and the segments of scripture are woven together with transitional text written to connect the storyline into one seamless story. For people new to the Bible, this way of reading scripture gives them a holistic and sequential picture of the storyline of Scripture and reduces the intimidation one can feel when approaching the full-length, unabridged Bible. For seasoned Bible veterans, the chronological arrangement of the essential texts reveals the single grand narrative of the Bible.

The result is a fresh perspective on the Upper Story of God and the Lower Story of humanity. As we journey through The Story together, we will learn that heaven and earth are woven more closely together than we ever dreamed. All through the story of the Bible we see two parallel and beautiful dramas unfold.

How can I participate in The Story?

During the AIF Hour

Each Sunday during our Adventures in Faith (AIF) hour, we'll be diving into one chapter of The Story. This will begin the weekend of February 26th. The AIF session will begin with a short video in the sanctuary, after which we will divide into small groups for discussion of that weeks chapter.

With your family or on your own...

We encourage you to journey through The Story together as a family or even on your own. Each weekend, you will hear a message from a particular chapter of The Story. We would really encourage you to read that same chapter during the coming week and interact with it on your own or with your famiy.
