The Unfolding Story

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!
