Session Title: Stop Teaching the Bible as a Road Map to Life
Across the whole of human history, God's grand narrative of love and redemption has been unfolding, a love gloriously displayed at the cross. This is the story of Jesus, and all history and Scripture point us to this good news. We will discover ways to take the focus off of us and place it where it rightfully belongs - on Christ.
