This week Pastor Phil talked about the Cross as being crux (core, pivotal) to our beliefs, and how, just as Jesus was crucified on the Cross, so too do we often crucify God’s work in our own lives. God’s Holy Spirit lives inside us, so what will we do with the Christ, the Story that lives in us? Listen to Sunday’s message by Pastor Phil Olsen.

This week Pastor Phil talked about the existence of conflict and resolution in God’s story. Life is about finding our place in God’s story, rather than trying to find a way to fit God into our story. Listen to Sunday’s message by Pastor Phil Olsen.

Listen to Sunday’s message by Pastor Phil Olsen.

In the Beginning…God.  The Story begins

The very first words in the Bible are the most foundational.  “In the beginning God…” Before anything else existed, God…  The essence of reality is not something God joined.  It is something that He IS.  Everything else extends from Him.

This is the truth revealed in The Story.  The Story directs what our actions should be, it defines what is of greatest value and it reveals what is true.  But it does so because it declares the soul of everything. This is not a conglomeration of ideas of thoughts. It is not an anthology of religious stories.  The Story is beyond a religious legend.  It is everything.  It speaks to our condition, it tells us where we have come from and it challenges us to a new way of living.
