It’s His story we are just living in it! We have spent time over the last 3 months telling a story and we have asked

you over that time to make the story your own and see where God was

working in your life through the stories. The reality of this story is that it is

truly God’s story and we are designed to be participating in that story.

For thousands of years, stories and oral traditions were the key means for

Jewish and Christian people to learn about and experience God. The Hebrew

process was called storying. Today we look at how we can take a good look

at the story of God and find out where God wants us in it.

We need both perspectives of the gospel. If we only focus on the gospel

power, we tend to be about a gospel that is all about saving individuals. That

becomes only about us. If we only focus on the gospel purpose, we tend to

lean towards good works and acts of service without the power of God. This

tends to make us believe that the mission of God is dependent on us.

THE GOSPEL IS GOD’S WORK FOR GOD’S WORK…THE STORY IS ALL ABOUT

HIM… IT’S NOT ABOUT US!

WE NEED SERVANTS IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD

CLIC is a family participating on mission with God. While it is easy to say

those words and it is easy to believe that they are true, we do need people to

act on the promptings of God. You can see from our schedule that CLIC is

also an active group in our city. We are asking you all to jump right in and

become active in the mission. We need help with audio visual, or worship, or

set up or tear down, or dogs on the lawn. Many hands make light work, so

jump in and get active.
