Discover the story God is telling

Life, for most of us, feels like a movie at which we've arrived forty minutes late.

Sure, good things happen, sometimes beautiful things. But tragic things happen, too. What does it mean? We find ourselves in the middle of a story that is sometimes wonderful, sometimes awful, usually a confusing mixture of both, and we haven't a clue how to make sense of it all. No wonder we keep losing heart.

We need to know the rest of the story.

For when we were born, we were born into the midst of a great story begun before the dawn of time. A story of adventure, of risk and loss, of heroism...and betrayal. A story where good is warring against evil, danger lurks around every corner, and glorious deeds wait to be done. Think of all those stories you've ever loved:  there's a reason they stirred your heart. They've been trying to tell you about the true Epic ever since you were young.

There is a Larger Story. And you have a crucial role to play.

The Gospel is an Epic -- a Drama that has been unfolding now for some time. Journey with John as he explores this Epic in four acts:

• Act One: The beginning of the Trinity and the birth of Eternal Love
• Act Two: The villain enters the story. Evil follows.
• Act Three: The Battle. God fights for the hearts of His people.
• Act Four: Heaven. It is paradise regained, the life we've always dreamed of. The time when God makes "all things new."

In this exciting re-telling of the Gospel, you will discover why you love and connect so deeply with the movies and stories that you do. For God has written a story on the human heart, and every other epic we love is inviting us in and telling us about the true Epic:  the Story that God is telling.
