It’s Not About You | Is that Really in the Bible? Week 5 – 645

Today, we’re continuing our study “Is that Really in the Bible” from MomStrong International! Have you ever thought of yourself as the center of God’s story? In a post-modern Church, that is often the case. We often have a tendency to insert ourselves into the center of biblical stories–we become the hero instead of seeing Jesus as the true hero or we reduce narratives down to a set of moral principles to apply so we can have a better life. This kind of man-centered reading and preaching can take glory away from God and distort the true nature of the Bible. Bottom line? The Bible is about God. It’s HIStory – and it points us to Jesus.
Scriptures
Luke 24:27
Isaiah 53:7-8
Isaiah 7:14
