Our first sermon in the Your Place in God's Story series is about Abraham and "Choosing to Obey".  When God speaks to us do we listen?  When God taps you on the shoulder do you feel it?  When God gives you a vision do you see it?  Would you react as Abraham did when God said for him to leave his country and his kindred and his father's house to go to a foreign place without question and with full faith in what God was asking him to do?  Come join us this Sunday to hear more about Genesis 12:1-9 and Choose to Be Part of God's Story!
