The Story

From beginning to end, scripture is a foundational story of God's love that explores who God is, the nature of humanity, and the relationship between God and creation- with US! We're better disciples when we immerse ourselves in scripture; the current moment gives us an opportunity to claim THE STORY as the center of our lives. 

Each week, we have a 5-day reading plan that will take us through all of scripture. The 5-day plan is designed to allow  you some flexibility in scheduling readings. Jump in anytime; Do what you can with God's help. 

See below for resources, our weekly drop-in zoom discussion group, and the reading plan (also found in the month's Ecclesia). If you are not receiving our church's e-blasts, and would like to, please fill out your information below.
