Sermon notes
The best Bible for you is the one that you will read.
“Having and defending and celebrating the Bible [instead of receiving, submitting to, and praying the Bible] masks an enormous amount of nonreading.” – Eugene Peterson (Eat This Book) Â
THE BIBLE IS A STORY
The story of the Bible is for you, but it’s not about you.
“We rightly search for the center of God’s will, but with the unspoken assumption that once we find it, the seat will have my individual name on it. We have hundreds of years of cultural reinforcement driving us to read the Bible with ourselves at the center” Misreading Scripture With Western Eyes – pg 207Â
Did I see the glory of God in the story I read today? Can I see the glory of God in the story I am living today?
THE BIBLE IS AN INVITATION
- An Invitation to REST FROM RELIGION
- An Invitation to FOLLOW JESUS
- An Invitation to BE TRULY SEEN
