Knowing Who God Is
By Kristie Christie
Have you ever found yourself in a moment you didn’t expect? Ever wished you could hit rewind and get a do over on your day?
I sat on the hard tile floor of the hallways outside of the ICU waiting fo good news. Days felt like years as I curled up in the vinyl chairs trying to sleep and then took trips home to shower and return. Praying. Hoping. Crying. Discovering strength inside me I didn’t know existed.
There was one day I walked the halls and had this thought, “I’m really glad I already know who you are, God. I don’t think this would be the moment to be figuring this out. I need you. I already need to know you.”
And friends, I know many times God meets and reveals himself to us in jail cells, hospital rooms, and the toughest moments. That’s real. What’s also real?
A gift was planted inside of me when I was a young girl by my parents, my Sunday School teachers, by my church aunts-uncles-grandparents who shared their faith with me, their passion for who Jesus is and was and will be for us.
The verses I memorized as a child? They are treasures planted in my soul.
So here we are. You may find yourself in the midst of a personal crisis, or maybe you’re playing in the sprinklers and making the best of quarantine summer.
Regardless of your current circumstances, we feel that one of the most important elements of this summer could be conversations about who God is as experienced as a family together. We’ve crafted summer REViBRANt Family Nights to guide you through key messages & stories in the Bible that reveal who God is and why we can trust Him.
We’re going to grow together this summer through REViBRANt experiences. Will you join us?
