St. Paul begins his first missionary sermon this way: The God of this people Israel chose our ancestors. He then proceeds to tell the story of the people as the way to introduce the new thing God is doing in Jesus. If you don’t know where you’re coming from you don’t know where you are. That is true today as well. To understand who we are as a nation we need to know our history with all its ups and downs. To know who we are as a church we need to know how we got here over the centuries. If we want to know what God is doing in our lives at this moment we should notice how God has always been with us.
