The Story
The Bible is central to our faith, but many people are intimidated by its scope and size. The Story gives us a way to journey from Genesis to Revelation together in 31 weeks so everyone understands God’s story and how their story intersects with it.”
The Bible is the best-selling book in history, but how many people in Summerside are actually reading it? A Gallup survey reports the average American household has four Bibles. However, research by Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life (2008) found that only 16 percent of Americans read the Bible every day.
We are hoping to reverse this trend, starting with our own congregation. The leadership of Central Street Christian Church believes that The Story, a Zondervan best-seller, is the right tool to increase Biblical literacy, helping readers understand God’s story from Genesis to Revelation and how their own stories intersect with God’s. Consisting of 31 chapters of carefully-selected scriptures sequenced in chronological order, The Story presents the word of God in an engaging format, reading like a novel.
Copies of The Story are available at the back of the church for a donation of $10. Please pick one up today and use it to help you along this journey.
I will also be doing a Bible study starting on Wednesday September 23rd at 7pm that goes along with each week’s sermon.
Discipleship Training
Discover a new vision for your ministry by thinking about how you make disciples. Do as Jesus did: Make disciples who go out and make disciples, who go out and make disciples. The Discipleship Training Manual explains the necessary components of disciple-making so that every church-member can play an active role in reaching others for Christ.
We will be having 3 different groups starting in a few weeks. Please come to the informational meeting on Tuesday Sept 15th at 7pm to find out more information.
