To be honest it seemed in the beginning like a great way to creatively highlight women in our church, but what I didn\u2019t expect was the deep encouragement, joint mission, and growth that would come from the simple ask of \u201cTell me your story.\u201d <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As I read google form entries of marital abuse, past abortions, the tragic loss of children, and the seasons of battling loneliness and depression, the faces of women that I had brushed shoulders with in the church lobby week after week came to mind. In their own words, they grieved and then celebrated how God had met them, healed them, protected them, and is now using them to be lights in the midst of darkness. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Stories Connect People.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In learning the stories of some of our women it gave me the opportunity to connect them with other women who have been or are walking through similar circumstances. This is 2 Corinthians 1:6 in action. \u201cEven when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you.\u201d In our churches we have walking reminders of hope, perseverance, and faithfulness. One instance of this was getting to connect a young woman in our church whose husband had an affair and left her and her children with an older woman who had walked through the same situation two decades earlier. They have met for coffee, prayed together, cried together, and both been so encouraged to see God\u2019s provision.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stories Remind Us To Not Put God In A Box.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is a temptation for all of us to approach church and evangelism with a checklist that is dependent on our own talents and efforts. When we hear how God is working and moving through different circumstances and how he uses different means to bring someone into a relationship with Him we begin to look at things differently. Suddenly a worship song, or a 10 minute conversation at the checkout counter, or the invite that was finally taken to join a friend on a Sunday morning becomes a display of God\u2019s grace and pursuit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Stories Grow Our Awareness &amp; Healing.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a world of polarization we can often categorize people in a number of different ways and rarely choose to take the time to actually listen, learn, and lean into the why and how they got to where they are. When we take those steps to get to know the person instead of operating out of assumptions we grow in compassion, joy, and empathy. Additionally, those that tell their stories and are met with grace, compassion, and understanding. In sharing the stories of our women we also communicated to everyone listening that the Church is here and ready to meet you in your current need. For both the storyteller and the listener we get to foster a culture of safety, forgiveness, and healing for one another. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Stories Rally Our People Around The Mission of God.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reminding our people of \u201cThe Why\u201d is what motivates them into movement and investment. Many of us are struggling with volunteer recruitment and last minute registrations. Post-pandemic ministry no doubt looks a lot different and we are still trying to figure out so many aspects of ministry and leadership, yet in the midst of those questions our mission and purpose is still the same; Loving God and loving people. This is why I love <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/churchanswers.com\/the-hope-initiative\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hope Initiative<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that Dr.Chuck Lawless is leading so many of our churches in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you look ahead to a new year with new opportunities and challenges I hope that you will integrate the stories and celebrations of what God is doing in and through your people. Maybe that is through a 100 stories campaign, or a weekly bulletin highlight, a special event with tacos and testimonies, or a special baptism Sunday. Profound joy, hope, and encouragement comes from the simple words, \u201cTell me your story.\u201d <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask, and then go and tell of God\u2019s wondrous works.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGive thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.
