There are things that happen in life that can take us by surprise. They seem to happen all of a sudden. But when you look back, it was a slow accumulation of events or choices that led to that sudden outcome. In Ernest Hemingway's book "The Sun Also Rises", a character is challenged with a question, "How did you go bankrupt?" His answer? "Two ways: gradually then suddenly." That theory can describe many areas of our lives. Come join us as we study Scripture to identify some faithful steps we can take now to set the stage for future breakthroughs in our series Gradually Then Suddenly.
