God the Creator Study Guide with DVD

In this eight-session video study, Randy Frazee helps group members see the “Lower Story” (events occurring on earth) and the “Upper Story” (events occuring in heaven) that run side-by-side throughout the pages of Scripture and how those stories help us to better understand God’s master plan. The story of the Bible reveals two parallel dramas. First, there is a Lower Story. As finite human beings, we view things from a horizontal perspective. We can't see what is around the bend but must make decisions based on our own intuitions. We struggle to know why certain things happen to us and why other things don't happen. But the Bible reveals there is also an Upper Story. This is the story unfolding from God's vertical perspective—from above. Heaven is breaking into our world more than we recognize, and the story of Gods seeking love, perpetual grace, and longing for relationship with ordinary people is breathtaking. The Bible tells us at the beginning of the Story, God walked with his first children in a beautiful garden and in a harmonious relationship. At the end of the Story, he will walk with us again, in a beautiful garden. In the time between, he calls us to walk with him in every area of life. As we do this—recognizing how the upper story and lower story fit together—we will experience his love and be guided by his wisdom. God's story will become our story. This all-new study, adapted from content featured in The Story church-wide campaign, will introduce group members to the Upper Story and Lower Story as revealed in the books of Genesis through Ruth. The curriculum also includes an updated study guide with new content and questions adapted from The Story Study Guide, The Heart of the Story, and Exploring the Story by Randy Frazee. This pack contains one study guide and one DVD.
