Read: Matthew 9:35-38
Creation, Fall, Redemption, Restoration. Every person has these four parts in their story… have you ever noticed that? Remember, your story is a part of the ultimate Story-God’s Story. When you are telling your story, it should end up more focused on God and how Jesus rescued and saved you. Take a look at these four movements and think about how you could tell your story in light of the Gospel story.
CREATION
How did your life begin? Where were you born?
The Key Question is: Who or what most shaped who you thought you were, and where you got your real value and identity” in life from?
FALL
What was happening in your life that was “broken”—NOT the way God created it and you to be? Relationships? Health? Respect for parents, teachers, your self?
The Key Question is: Why was your relationship with God and others, (and anything else in your life), NOT the way it was supposed to be? (like God created it…)
REDEMPTION
Explain how the sins you mentioned above, and the effects of these sins in your life, were rescued and redeemed by Jesus.
The Key Question is: How has Jesus paid the penalty for your sins (when He died on the Cross) and how did you come to put your faith and trust in him to save you and restore you?
RESTORATION
What is happening in your life now? How is God changing you, using you, speaking to you now?
The Key Question is: What has changed and is changing in your life now? And who and what is the focus of your life today?
