Joining the Story is a young adult curriculum written by the Rev. Lee Yates and edited by Debbie Phelps. Joining the Story is a chronological study of the Old Testament that explores the story of God's people from creation through the prophets. The hope of the study is that by exploring the stories of God's people, connecting these stories in a timeline, and discovering how God has cared for God's people from one generation to the next, today's youth will find their own place in the story.
