The Ocean City Tabernacle welcomes author and songwriter Laura Story to speak at the 8:30 a.m. traditional and 10:30 a.m. contemporary services on Sunday, Aug. 27.
This marks her first visit at the Tabernacle as a Sunday morning speaker after several concert appearances.
“I gave up my pursuit of normal a long time ago,” writes the worship leader and Christian recording artist in her new book, “So Long, Normal: Living and Loving the Free Fall of Faith.”
She continues, “Surprisingly, I can say this without shame or regret. Not that normal is bad, but why should you or I settle for normal when we’ve been created for something far greater?”
This is the foundational question that Story – who has written Grammy and Dove award-winning songs such as “Blessings,” “O Love of God,” and Chris Tomlin’s “Indescribable” – winsomely and transparently explores in “So Long, Normal,” her third book and a follow-up to her recent popular titles, “When God Doesn’t Fix It” and “I Give Up.”
The Ocean City Tabernacle also hosts Boardwalk Worship at the Music Pier on Sundays at 8 a.m., with music by Jane Zigner and a message by Rev. Terry Lothian.
