Moving Forward in Truth: Pressing on Toward the Mark
The purpose of telling our stories or sharing our history is not so that we will go back in time and place just for the sake of going there or so that we will get stuck there, but so that we can appreciate the journey that has brought us from where we were to where we are, and if necessary, to help us realize the work that remains to carry us forward towards living into and becoming our best selves. We, as a Church, are the sum total of the experiences of all our parts, as is true for any family. We look at where we have been so we can see where we were, how we have grown, what we have overcome and where we may still have room to grow.
