Telling Our Stories: Personal Accounts of Engagement with Scripture (Journeys with Scripture)

How does the church address its differences? How can the struggle draw us together rather than drive us apart? This book tells of a gathering that asked these questions amid stories reporting on each participant's journey with Scripture. The book also describes a model for such engagement. Telling their stories are over twenty church leaders, including pastors, administrators, and teachers.
