Ordinary Stories, Extraordinary God: How the stories of life point to great truths about God - Paperback

by Renee Gilmour (Author)

The Bible is essentially a story about God, filled with ordinary people and their relationship with Him. The Old Testament stories point toward the coming of Jesus, and the New Testament stories tell of His arrival. Every story in the Bible whispers Jesus' name. From the first book to the last, we see God's great plan unfold, to restore a lost and broken humanity to Himself. The Bible is inspired by God, and it points us to Him. It's His great big story and it connects our ordinary story, through our relationship with Jesus, to Him. Our ordinary stories find their full meaning and purpose in relationship with God.

In Ordinary Stories, Extraordinary God you will hear stories of Renee's life and simple applications that illustrate extraordinary truths about God. You will read some of her favourite memories, her biggest failures and her scariest moments. She'll share some amusing and embarrassing experiences and some of the lessons she's learnt. Renee's storytelling and the thoughtful scriptures and prayers will help reorient your own story to God and help you to ask the question, "Are my stories finding their full meaning and purpose in relationship with God?"
