Current Study
The Story of God: The Bible as Narrative
This study was developed by Doug McBride and is our current teaching series on Sunday mornings at Creekside. Questions for this study were developed for your small groups to dig deeper into the Scriptures.
We'll look at the Story of God and how we play a part in it. We'll be taught how to approach our Bibles and look for several of the following things:
- What is the Thesis if you will of the Bible?
- What are the Main Threads that run through the entire story?
- Why is the story approach so important?
- How does the story really end?
- How does the story really start?
- Why is Jesus central to the story
- And how do we approach the story properly?
That last question is the one we will start with and we will address all the others over this series. Once we do that, we will give it a go to sweep thru the entire story from 40,000 feet with the goal that all of us by the end of several months will hopefully be able to retell the story To turn ANYWHERE in Scripture and KNOW WHERE WE ARE.
