Description
Every church has wonderful stories that are not being told. This course examines why the church must tell its stories and provides specific tools for including story telling within worship. While considering the dramatic anthology of the ancient Hebrew people and how those biblical works can be restaged for contemporary culture, the focus of this course is primarily personal narrative, biblical storytelling, and local church history.
