As the Evangelism ephasis, "I Love to Tell the Story" wraps up Pastor Dee Pederson reminds us that listening is just as important as speaking our faith story. She invites us to listen for that place in a conversation where the Holy Spirit has opened a door in the conversation. Listen for the "God Questions" in the other person's story. Jesus provided a model in the Gospel lesson while listening to the questions of the crowds and finding a door to share the true story of God with them.

Preaching Texts:
Isaiah 55:1-9
Psalm 63:1-8
Like 13:1-9
