A new Sermon Series starts September 6th 2026
The Story is an abridged, chronological Bible that reads like a novel. There are no verse references, and Scripture segments are seamlessly woven together with transition text into a single grand narrative.
For those intimidated or overwhelmed by the unabridged Bible, The Story helps people understand God’s Word more fully and engage with it more easily.
Simple, accessible, and easy to use, churches are finding The Story a powerful way to engage their people in Bible reading like never before.
As it brings the Bible to life, people of all ages will be swept up in the story of God’s love and his plan for their lives.

Whenever possible, we encourage families to attend a Sunday Worship Service together
It is suggested that you to read each chapter the Thursday-Saturday as a family prior to each weeks message.

A 31-WEEK
CHURCH-WIDE JOURNEY
The Bible is more than a collection of individual stories. It is one great, unfolding story - the story of God and His people.
The Story brings together carefully selected passages of Scripture in chronological order, allowing us to experience the Bible as one continuous narrative from Genesis to Revelation.
Over 31 weeks, we will journey together through creation, promise, redemption, the life of Jesus, the birth of the Church, and the hope of God’s ultimate restoration.
