What’s Summer without a road trip? We’re travelling back to the stories of the Patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. They lived on the road, and in their travels, they encountered God in strange and unexpected ways. What do we learn about God on the road that we can’t learn when we stay in our comfort zones?
How might God be calling us to go somewhere new, following after our creator?

Running Again
We tend to worship God on Sundays, but spend the rest of our week running from one obligation to the next, hobbling back in the next week exhausted and in desperate need of refreshment. God didn't intend for our faith to be this way. The story of Elijah's showdown with the prophets of Ba'al on Mt. Carmel illustrates the real danger: when aspects of our lives become idols, they drain away our life, distract us from God and hurt those around us. We must learn to let God order our lives so that we can find the life God promises!
