Reading Map:
8.01 – Stories – Surprised: This teaching explores the concept of inheritance. God’s desire has always been to give us his blessing. The inheritance is the expression of that. It is the love of God and the truth of our reconciliation. One of the deepest expressions of that inheritance is rest.
8.02 – Stories – Lead: This teaching explores the role of the Spirit in leading our lives. True wisdom always comes from the Holy Spirit.
8.03 – Stories – Laundry: This teaching explores the life of King Saul. What does it look like when we refuse to let go of our stuff? It ends up destroying us.
8.04 – Stories – Why: The teaching explores the life of David, a man after God’s own heart. David’s life is the poetic example of someone who is not afraid to trust. He is the person people write stories about.
8.05 – Stories – Barriers: This teaching explores our human bent to control. It explores the contrast of Saul and David and their different approaches to the role God asks them to play in the kingdom.
8.06 – Stories – Heavy: This teaching explores the purpose of atonement in our lives. God’s primary purpose of atonement is for us. It helps us remove the guilt in our lives.
8.07 – Work – Knowing: This teaching explores the concept of how we know we know. It outlines three possible ways we believe and reveals the concept of the fruit behind our beliefs. It also explores the concept of the crutch that keeps us from engaging what we know.
8.08 – Stories – Unfaithful: This teaching explores the shift in the story of a people who don’t want to follow. God sends prophets who reveal different attributes of God in the story, some of which are strange.
8.09 – Stories – Exile: This teaching explores what happens when we walk away from God. The cost and consequence of that choice is called captivity. And what is God’s response?
8.10 – Stories – Surrender: This teaching explores the concepts of captivity and God’s wrath and punishment. How we respond to each is much of the problem.
8.11 – Stories – Wait: This teaching explores the role of silence in our lives. What is the cost of so much noise and is it keeping us from hearing the still small voice of God?
