Exodus 20: 1-17

Welcome to our series on The Story. We are on a journey from Genesis to Revelation this year as we learn about God‘s heart for what he‘s made. Today we review one year in the life of God‘s people. This is a very significant year as God called his people to a year-long campout. Right away we get a glimpse of the problem. It is not God, it is the people. They had moved locations but their struggles continued. Something needed to change. God does what we have seen him do, time and again . . . God pursues.

My heart is drawn to a loving family.  Growing up my family had strengths and weaknesses just like yours.  In my case, my family of origin was not very close.  From that experience I have lived more independently and self-sufficiently.  This has helped me grow in some ways but also kept me from risking the vulnerability of close relationships.  This means I have missed out on God’s best as He invites me to share deeply with my spiritual family.  Close relationships are God-ordained and encourage me to love and risk and grow.  I am thinking of New Harvest as family more so these days and it is giving me hope and anticipated depth as we share our lives with each other more closely.  How does that sound to you?  Do you agree that family is the right description for a church body?  What draws you to the idea and what keeps you away?  I would love to hear from the family of God on this one!
