SUMMARY:Living the Message
DESCRIPTION:Stories That Shape Us \nThis year’s Living the Message will be co-taught by multiple Mount Olivet pastors who will each share a biblical story that has shaped them over the course of their lives.

Our pastors will open up these passages in a way that they hope will allow these same powerful stories to shape you as well\, bolstering your faith\, renewing your sense of God’s presence in your life\, and inviting you to lives of greater meaning and purpose in light of God’s promises.
