Wouldn't it be great if our churches in the Fargo-Moorhead community came together, pooling resources for the sake of spreading the Word? Imagine congregations engaging with God's Word together, from Genesis to Revelation, showing our community the unity Christ prayed for!
You’re invited to join with church members across Fargo-Moorhead in participating in The Story next year (Sept.-May). Picture the impact of multiple churches offering numerous opportunities for people to dive into the Bible together, creating a powerful, united witness to our community!
What is The Story?
The Story is an abridged, chronological Bible that reads like a novel. It seamlessly weaves Scripture segments together with transition text, offering a single grand narrative that makes understanding God's Word more accessible. For those who find the unabridged Bible intimidating, The Story is a simple, approachable way to engage with the Scriptures. This 31-week journey will sweep people of all ages into the story of God's love and His plan for their lives.
Why Participate in The Story?
Improve Bible Literacy: Individuals will gain a deeper understanding of the Bible and see the consistent thread that points to Jesus throughout Scripture.
Foster Unity: The entire church community will study the same chapter each week, creating a shared experience and fostering unity.
Equip Parents: Parents will learn alongside their children, growing together in faith.
Outreach Tool: The Story is a great way to reach out to others, inviting them to explore the Bible in a fresh, engaging way.
Expand Small Groups: This program is an excellent opportunity to create more small group studies within the church.
The Story Curriculum
Adults: Includes 31 ten-minute video lessons with teachings by Randy Frazee, complemented by readings from various individuals. Study guides, lessons, and devotions are provided.
Teens: A DVD creatively illustrates the story of the week, with games, study guides, lesson plans, and parent pages.
Children (ages 2-12): Leader guides, lesson plans, activity sheets, skits, and parent pages are available, ensuring the whole family can engage with the material.
But The Story is more than just a program; it’s a vision for deepening our community’s spiritual foundation and biblical literacy. By growing together in our understanding of God, we can extend our outreach, inviting others to begin their own faith journeys alongside us.
Join us in making this vision a reality! Let’s come together, study God’s Word, and show Fargo-Moorhead the power of a united church.
