Stories That Shape Us This year’s Living the Message will be co-taught by multiple Mount Olivet pastors who will each share a biblical story that has shaped them over the course of their lives. These are among their favorite stories, but also more, as they are the stories that have shaped our pastors’ sense of who God is, what our lives as Christians can be like, and how we can view the world differently because of the biblical witness. Our pastors will open up these passages in a way that they hope will allow these same powerful stories to shape you as well, bolstering your faith, renewing your sense of God’s presence in your life, and inviting you to lives of greater meaning and purpose in light of God’s promises. Join us! October 7: 2 Kings 22: Know Your Story, Know Yourself with Pastor LoseNovember 4: John 11: Lazarus Just Laid There with Pastor DixonDecember 2: Ester 1, 4: Vashti and Esther: For Such a Time as This with Theresa LatiniJanuary 6: Genesis 1 and Isaiah 40: When Everything Is Lost: Exile and Creation with Pastor GrangaardFebruary 3: Genesis 50: “You Meant It For Evil” – God’s saving work in the face of suffering with Pastor CieslikMarch 3: The Book of Job: No One Cares About Job Until They Need Job with Pastor Olson PoppApril 7: John 20:24-29: Resurrection Is Not Reversal: Doubting Thomas with Pastor GrangaardMay 5: John 21, Mark 16: Just the Beginning… with Pastor LoseNEW THIS YEAR: Videos will be filmed live at the in-person presentation and emailed by the second Monday of the month.
