Ruptures in our narrative

On the road to Damascus Saul, who was actively persecuting the church, has an encounter with Jesus and becomes one of the most prolific evangelists in history. This is the ORIGINAL Born-Again story that we can point at and say, ah-ha, all you have to do is have this encounter with Jesus and your life will change dramatically.

At Crossings today, we talked about how our life dramatically and permanently changes when we develop a relationship with Jesus, but not all of us have clear dramatic encounters. Some of our stories are more subtle.

Katie in her message called these "ruptures in our narrative." God does small interesting interfering things in our lives which don't always fit neatly together into a cohesive faith story, but they do bring us along in our spiritual journeys.
