STORYTELLER: PURPOSE OF THIS BLOG

God writes His stories in my life everyday and this blog was created to share those. His stories are to be told to a lost and lonely world as a means of hope and healing. I heard a sermon yesterday that inspired me to start this blog (more on that later) and the pastor encouraged us all to tell our stories and not just our old stories, but our current, relevant stories of what God is doing in our lives. He also said the telling of our stories brings "Kingdom Order into chaos" - I love that picture!

The purpose of this blog:

STORYTELLING
When God breaks into chaos and brings Kingdom Order

It is also a means of fulfilling the Great Commission: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” In our stories we ARE sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.

What is your story?

That's His story and I'm sticking to it!

HIS TRUTH

But if I say, "I will not mention him or speak any more in his name," his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot. Jeremiah 20:9

I will tell of the kindnesses of the LORD, the deeds for which he is to be praised, according to all the LORD has done for us—yes, the many good things he has done for the house of Israel, according to his compassion and many kindnesses. Isaiah 63:7

It is my pleasure to tell you about the miraculous signs and wonders that the Most High God has performed for me. Daniel 4:2

For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard. Acts 4:20

It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken."With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak... 2 Corinithians 4:20

But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region. Matthew 9:31
