To Be Told
It's the beginning of a new year and many of us are setting goals, making plans. But how do we decide which goals to set, which plans to follow? Are the ones we choose connected to the big picture of our life or just the seeming solution to what's most pressing?
This month's Recommended Resource, Dan Allender's wonderfully written To Be Told, helps us understand the story of our life up to now and guides us through a process for participating with God in writing the story of our future. Throughout the book, Allender makes powerful use of stories and questions to help us better understand the themes of our past, and to envision the possibilities of our future.
Now is the perfect time to read such a book. With the start of a new year comes a new beginning, a chance to take stock of where we've been and where we're going. A chance to more fully understand our purpose and to choose goals and make plans that enable us to live it out. To Be Told provides essential help for all of that.

“What the Bible has to say about money is not often heard in British churches, so it was a real joy to have Matt Bell come over for a series of talks and workshops. In a society where many inside and outside the church are drowning in debt and financial wisdom is in short supply, Matt offers a much-needed biblical corrective that is full of hope and joy. I wholeheartedly endorse his work and look forward to his next visit to these shores!”
