Learning God's Story of Grace is coming May 27
What do you know?
5-8 He planted a witness in Jacob,
set his Word firmly in Israel,
Then commanded our parents
to teach it to their children
So the next generation would know,
and all the generations to come—
Know the truth and tell the stories
so their children can trust in God,
Never forget the works of God
but keep his commands to the letter. Psalm 78:5-8, The Message Translation
Learning leads to living — I know that because “the Bible tells me so”:
We need to learn God’s story of grace in order to live it. Learning doesn’t mean simply studying hard or pounding information into our minds. Learning means knowing. When the Bible speaks of knowing, it refers to a deep connection involving heart and mind. To know God is to be intimately connected with him. As we consider both the big story God has written in Scripture and the particular stories he is writing in our lives, we come to know God more deeply and love him more fully.” Learning God’s Story of Grace
How about you? What struggles do you have with knowing something and living it? How do you think the gospel addresses that struggle for Christians?
Learning God’s Story of Grace, available May 27, will take you and your community into a deeper conversation about questions like these.
