What's Your Story?

BY JAMES PRESCOTT--Words have such power don’t they? Especially words fed to us as we are growing up. The messages we hear through our teenage years have the potential to stay with us for decades to come.

Somewhat reluctantly, I folded down the top of my laptop and began talking to him. In the next 45 minutes I learned about his time at war, his wife who passed away 10 years ago, his 40-year career at the manufacturing plant, the part-time minister role he held, his two daughters and his dog.

1st Faith is an idea. A dream. A vision. A hope. We're naive enough to believe it can happen. If you believe too, hop on board.

Redeemed--that’s the word that comes to mind today as I think about my life. To be honest, I have walked closely to the Lord for over a decade now, so sometimes I forget how crazy my life was before I completely let Him take over.

stories & stuff for you

In 1997 (has it been 22 years? My goodness, I’m getting old), my cooking prowess extended to whipping up some french toast, but that was about it.

Our daughter Laura was induced early, because of issues too complicated for me to understand or explain. Henry would be fine, we were told. This was just a precaution. The good news? We had a set date for baby. This was going to be simple.

Opening my suitcase after checking into a hotel for a speaking engagement, I realized I forgot to pack a dress shirt. I had a couple of casual button-downs, but nothing for the event. Yikes.

For regulars here, you know 1st Faith is where anyone has an opportunity to tell a story of faith. Why? Because one of the strongest ways to build a friend’s faith is through telling our own story.

Welcome to 1st Faith

Stories are powerful because they connect us to each other in a way nothing else can.

At 1st Faith, you’ll find stories of joy, of surprise . . . honest stories from regular people in their journeys of faith.

We hope these stories encourage you whenever you stop by to visit. And if you have a story for us, connect with us. We’d love to share it. It’s great to have you with us; because we’re in this journey together.
