The Role of Remembrance

Tonight I have the honor being able to preach for a group of college students at the University of New Mexico.  I'll be talking about the huge role of remembrance in the Christian life.  I thought this post from Doug Wolter, "Building Community by Sharing Our Stories" was a great tie into what I'll be teaching tonight. He writes:
Last night I asked one simple question that opened the doorway to closer community with a few people in our church.  All I asked was, “What’s your faith story?” and the Holy Spirit led us into joyful humility and awe at the redeeming work of Christ on our behalf.  It was a sweet time remembering the grace of God in each of our lives.
Read the rest.
