Publisher's Synopsis
Stories are powerful. From Eve's bite of the forbidden fruit to Abigail's humility as she stood before King David, the stories of God and His people grip us. But even the most memorable Bible story is just the backdrop for an even bigger narrative.
In A Beautiful Story: Making God's Story Yours, Erin Davis explores the lives of 10 Old Testament women whose seeming ordinary lives point the spotlight toward an extraordinary God. This 8-session study taps into the power of story to discover God's character and redemptive plan in all of Scripture. These stories aren't just scattered pages; they are bound together by the One who wrote them.
And your life is the pen God is using to write the higher story, His story, A Beautiful Story.
