More Story of God Responses

Here are a few more participant responses from our winter session: // The church sermons are more relatable, too with the knowledge of the background story.

// I wanted to see God with the eyes of a child.  To see Him like I did when I first gave my heart to Him.  There have been moments when I have felt that rush and that intimacy, that purity of Spirit.  But God took things a different way.  The relationship matured and became an older intimacy, more like a marriage.

// My knowledge of the Bible was minimal and I feel my learning exceeded what I was hoping to take away. ...I’m excited to share my knowledge with our son as he gets older, and begin his introduction to the Bible at a young age.  Thank you so much. This class was tremendous!!

// It brought me back into God’s word.  I missed it.  I did not realize how much.  I hope to continue on my journey and growth.  I realize how I need others.

// Understanding how it all fits together is exciting and faith building and also gives me more confidence when I’m questioned about why I believe.

Story of God Participant Responses

Here are some of the responses from our just completed winter Story of God session. Each session begins with supper where we eat and fellowship with our small group. Then we have about 45 minutes of discussion based on the previous week's reading and a lecture that pulls it all together. NEXT STORY OF GOD SESSION: Sundays, 9:15am, Room 101, 9 weeks. Email me if you would like a link to register. Limited to 21 participants.

// This was my first structured Bible study and small groupI am eager to continue these connections and practices.  I enjoyed being able to talk openly about God, the bible and my life.

// I had all of these 31 years of Bible knowledge in my head but had trouble making sense of it as a whole.  Getting into the big timeline and full picture was so neat.

// First time in a long time since I spent scheduled time in prayer and Bible reading outside of church.  Also helped in getting my wife and I the opportunity to study together.

// I am more excited and motivated to continue studying.

// The structure/routine of this study helped me commit and be accountable.  I appreciate the picture/symbols to help guide me, and I’ve used it to share with others and as a reference for myself.  I am excited to read the Bible now!
