  • God’s Promise of Perfect Peace (The Awesome Awful Promises of God - Pt 5)

    God’s Promise of Perfect Peace (The Awesome Awful Promises of God - Pt 5)
    Feb 3 2025
    The Bible is a book that’s full of promises, and its main character is a promise-maker. Almost nine thousand promises are made in Scripture, and eighty-five percent of them are promises that God made to human beings. Many of God’s promises are hopeful and optimistic, like when He pledged to love us, to save us, and to give us eternal life. But some of His promises in the Bible seem hopeless and grim, such as His repeated vows to punish sins and destroy the world as we know it. So how should we interpret and understand the full range of God’s promises in the Bible? Do God’s positive promises contradict with His unpleasant ones, or is there a way to reconcile them? And how do the promises that God made thousands of years ago apply to our lives today? In January and February at The Story, we’ll explore these questions and more throughout this series by taking a closer look at the specific promises that God made through the Old Testament prophet Isaiah.

    Sharing Good News (Christmas is Coming - Pt 5)
    Dec 29 2024
    Among all the most influential people in history - great men like Napoleon, Shakespeare, Mohammed, and Alexander the Great - one man stands apart. Born to teenage parents two thousand years ago in a backwater province of Rome, Jesus of Nazareth somehow became the most significant person to ever walk the earth. His message has inspired the love and adoration of billions, and today, over two millennia after his birth, more people than ever still worship the name of this inconspicuous first-century carpenter who turned the world upside down. What makes his life story even more astonishing is the fact that it was foretold by ancient Hebrew prophets. Israel’s greatest prophet, Isaiah, announced Christ’s birth, life, death, and resurrection over seven hundred years before Jesus was born. Join The Story Church this Christmas season as we examine and celebrate the birth of Christ through the eyes of Isaiah.
