Wednesdays in October at St. Paul's | The Story
 The Story – a parish wide immersion into the Bible. Starting in October the whole parish will begin a journey to explore the Bible together in a new way. The Story puts the Bible in chronological order and breaks it into 31 easily readable chapters. We will be meeting to discuss the chapter each Wednesday night beginning in October (but even if you cannot attend on Wednesdays, you can still follow The Story on your own along with the parish). All that you need is a copy of the book and a willingness to see God’s story in a new light. A copy of The Story costs $16 and can be ordered through the church office. Please email llavelle@stpauls-lakeview.org to reserve your copy.
“The Greatest Story ever told” is more than just a cliché. God goes to great lengths to rescue lost and hurting people. That is what The Story is all about—the story of the Bible, God’s great love affair with humanity. Condensed into 31 accessible chapters, The Story sweeps you into the unfolding progression of Bible characters and events from Genesis to Revelation. Using the clear, accessible text of the NIV Bible, it allows 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, and redemption-and this story’s true!
The Story Begins October 19th
Our first session of The Story will begin this Wednesday, October 19th with Holy Eucharist at 6pm followed by a $6 meal and then a reflection and discussion on The Story.
This week’s discussion will be based on Chapter 1 – The beginning of life as we know it (pages 1-12). If possible, it would be best to read the chapter beforehand. If you do have a copy of The Story, they can be purchased through the church office for $15.
If you cannot attend, you can still follow along and read chapter 1 on your own – there are questions for pondering and reflection in the back of The Story, and each week I will make available a summary of the discussion from Wednesday nights session.
I am looking forward to seeing you as we begin our journey through The Story.
