The Story
This Sunday, December 22, the books for The Story will
be available in the Main Foyer. The Story is a hardback
book using words from the NIV that have been edited to
read in chronological order like a novel. It
is divided into 31 chapters, each of which
will serve as the basis for one week in our
series. The Story is recommended reading
for this series and is available at our cost
of $7.50.
Also, available is a beautiful picture & story book
for children. This book can be used to help make your
children familiar with the stories of the Bible and keep
them current with what will be taught in their classes
each week. The Story for Children is also available at our
cost of $10.
Our Small Groups are also using this opportunity to
go through The Story in a deeper way, using the video
and printed curriculum. The user’s guide for this series
is available at our cost of $8.50.
We encourage you to take advantage of these special
deals and prepare for this series. We also ask you to
consider who you may need to share The Story with and
consider giving a copy as a gift and invitation to join us
as we study. Stop by The Story distribution table for your
special gift!
