Long Story Short
Sermon Series
Sundays, November 11—December 2
Whether it’s Thanksgiving, Christmas, or just a family get together, you may have found yourself thinking at one time or another, “Get to the point, Grandpa!” We can all relate to the person whose stories seem to drag on way to long, but our ears perk up when we hear those magical words, “...long story short…” We're excited to gather together to explore the big story of scripture and how it can impact our lives.
Join us!
WEEK 4
December 2
Share Your Story
As a community of faith, we want our rallying point to be the work of Jesus. The cool part is that none of our reasons for belonging to FIRST are the same. We all have different backgrounds, histories, and events that led us to where we are at today.
WEEK 3
November 25
Sharing Your Story
The best stories are the ones that we experienced first-hand. It's easier for us to tell a story about what happened to us then it is to recount the events of someone else's life. Plus, our stories get even better when they are about something impactful.
WEEK 2
November 18
Stories Matter
If someone has ever told you about a life changing event, there's a good chance they told you the story of what happen and not just the baseline facts. We share the story of the drive to the hospital for the child that was born or the time they went to that concert and got pulled up on stage.

The Big Story
Our world is full of stories. From novels to movies to comics, stories have the ability to stir different emotions within us. Have you ever noticed every story follows a similar outline? There's a setting, a problem, a climax, and a resolution.
