Stewarding a Story

Have you ever heard something so incredible that you could not help but share it with others? That is what happens in the church. As we serve a good God, He is going to blow our minds with the incredible things we see Him accomplish in us and in others. We have been trying to be good stewards of those stories by telling them to the church on Sunday mornings in our services. We call them “God Stories.” Slaves being freed in Pakistan, cars being donated in Ukraine, lost people being found here at Grace...those are all examples of the incredible things God is doing both locally and globally! 

Why are we talking about this in our blog post? We want to steward your story. We want to tell, or allow you to tell, of the incredible things God is doing in your life or in the lives of those around you. When we tell of the faithfulness and goodness of God it edifies the body of Christ. What does that mean? It means that the way God has blessed you, will be a blessing for others to hear about. Your story may build someone’s faith. Your story may encourage someone who is facing a similar challenge. Your story may inspire someone to approach you for help or support. If we don’t tell these stories, we miss out on these blessings.

Do you have a story that needs to be told? I would love to hear it and consider how we might best share it with the church so that we can praise God with you. If you have a “God Story” to share you can get in touch with us in one of two ways. First, you can call the church office and setup an appointment to share it with us, or just share it with us over the phone. Second, you can email me to accomplish the same thing: pastorpaul@gracechurchkelseyville.org
