h Jesus' life to show us how we can find our place in the story of Christ. Christianity is not only a faith founded on facts, but also a deeply personal experience of God's transforming grace in Christ. While our hope is rooted in historyâ "the events of Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascensionâ "the Scriptures also teach that every believer is included in these events. From the manger to the cross, from the empty tomb to his glorious throne, Jesus acted for us. And the mystery and wonder of the gospel is that we are crucified, buried, raised, and seated with him. The story of Jesus rewrites our stories.
