Asking the right questions

DateTuesday, August 14, 2007 at 1:00AM

From the book Total Church:

We ask, "Where does God fit into the story of my life?", when the real question is "Where does my life fit into this great story of God's mission?"

We want to be driven by a purpose that has been tailored just right for our own individual lives, when we should be seeing the purpose of all life, including our own, wrapped up in the great mission of God for the whole of creation.

We talk about "applying the Bible to our lives." What would it mean to apply our lives to the Bible instead, assuming the Bible to be the reality - the real story - to which we are called to conform ourselves?
