THE BIG GOD STORY!

Some of you have heard this phrase from your child.  So, what is "The Big God Story" all about?  Why do we call it that?


It's pretty simple.  Every week at Kids Adventure we take time to focus on the Bible and the wonderful, true stories therein.  But we take a bit of a different approach.  We go from beginning to end in one year, stretching from Genesis to Revelation chronologically to help kids understand scripture as more than just a collection of short stories. God’s redemptive plan is woven throughout.  No dipping here and skipping there.


One more thing...the Big God Story isn't about a bunch of superhuman people who did superhuman things.  Rather, it is about regular people (like our children, you, me) who made a choice to follow God.  Then God, in His supernatural power, did amazing things in and through them.  So, if he can do this in people like Abraham, Moses, Esther, David, Peter, Mary, Paul, then why not us?


It's His Big Story and He wants you and me to be a part of it.  Dr. Michelle Anthony, Family Ministry Ambassador at RockHarbor Church in Costa Mesa, Ca. has developed this idea in her book called "The Big God Story".  It's a simple overview of the Bible from start to finish.


Here's a video narration of the book.  Check it out then show it to your children.
