Going to the Boundary Waters
Tom and I doing the fuel tank
Living by faith in grace… Living the story of grace
What is story?
Unmet desire and hard reality combined with faith that turns into action
A husband facing failure
The challenge of an authentic story
What’s the most authentic way to tell your story?
Your story doesn’t start with you.
And you could find parts of your story you don’t like.
Hard reality - Noticing danger
Unmet desire - Cars breaking down
You have multiple potential narrators.
Who has suffered the most/ been victimized the most has the most authentic story?
What do I do with desires others find undesirable?
Actions - Why did you do what you did?
The fundamental story of the Gospel
This is God’s story.
Doctrine - Truths of the Bible
The joy of submission - It’s not ultimately your story
The pursuit of goodness - there is good that can be done
The repentance of hope - I don’t have all the answers nor all the right actions
The high-jacking of the story by shame
What if you don’t have the knowledge he prays for in chapter 1?
What if you don’t grasp the love he prays for in chapter 3?
What does it mean to not stand in chapter 6?
Shame gets you drunk when you should be filled with the Spirit.
Marriage - 2 responses… buying a new car… hiding
Parenting = afraid my kids won’t turn out well… protect them from everything!
usually adds something from your past - this intensifies your reaction and locks the plot in place...
Work
The shame that wants to say adult modern reading of history is better than childish religious reading of history is the same shame that says “you’re failing at ...”
Elon Musk - Curiosity
Living out the story by applying truth in love
I want…I am redeemed
I feel unloved…I am adopted
I am waiting…I have an inheritance
Parable of the talents
How does this help me love, trust, serve, give, do good?
