<P><B>Why is the church so important to God? What’s really going on in the Bible? How can I make sense of my life?</B> </P><P><I>Finding Ourselves in God’s Story </I>addresses the pressing questions and concerns that today’s youth bring to their faith. Introducing Christian faith from an Anabaptist perspective, author Michele Hershberger puts readers in touch with two stories that Christians constantly hear and tell. First, there is the Bible’s story of God working to restore us, and all of creation, to wholeness. The center of this story is Jesus Christ, who lived, died, rose, and still lives for us. The second story involves our own lives today, asking how we can connect with God’s story, where God is working in our lives, and what we will do with Jesus’ invitation to follow him. </P><P>Hershberger invites readers to join a conversation that covers these and other questions about faith. Drawing on direct, honest dialogue with Mennonite teenagers, young adults, and pastors, this guide engages groups in the discussions that matter most as it leads readers deeper into a faith that can become their own as they consider baptism or church membership.</P>
