We all live within stories. We tell ourselves stories about God, others, and ourselves. We believe the stories that others tell about us. These stories come with recipes that write themselves into the substance of our lives, whether for good or ill.

However, God has something healing and freeing to say about those stories. He also invites us to hold each other’s stories well, with the love, gentleness, and respect Jesus displayed. David reflects on the power of stories in Psalm 139, where Pastor Bo finds lessons that help us flourish.
