The Unfolding Story

The Unfolding Story by Nick Fawcett was published by Kevin Mayhew in October 2000 and is our 12219th best seller. The ISBN for The Unfolding Story is 9781840036046.

The Unfolding Story is a compre­hensive parish resource for reflective worship on the Old Testament. It is designed for use in public worship or for quiet days, with the 80 meditations woven into themed ready-to-use orders of service.

For many the Old Testament is a closed book - primitive and dull, often barbaric, irrelevant. To recon­cile the God we find there with the God revealed in Jesus is some­times hard.

But it is also the story of a people's journey across centuries towards an ever-deepening under­­­standing of God's greatness, love and mercy, all brought together in anticipation of the promised Messiah - a journey shared and con­tinued by every Christian.

The meditations which form the basis of the services in The Unfolding Story were previously published in Grappling with God . Nick Fawcett has now developed them into complete services with

• an Introduction
• Prayers
• Hymn suggestions
• Commentries
• Readings

Nothing more to do, except pray them!
