Storytelling...

Personal storytelling helps us go beyond these tired, easy, blind responses and see the full range of wondrous moments and meaningful themes that exist in our day-to-day lives. We revitalize our sense of the miraculous. Viewed with this kinds of sensitivity, even the most apparently featureless, unexplored life can metamorphose into a story-rich odyssey.
--Jack McGuire, The Power of Personal Story Telling, p. 18

Tricia’s Thoughts:
If someone were to ask you, “What has God done for you lately?” or “What truth is God speaking to you through your family?” A recent event will most likely pop into your head. A moment that stands out as ordinary, yet also meaningful. Or perhaps a series of events.

As storytellers, I feel we have a unique advantage when it comes to evaluating the world around us. We see God’s themes, lived out. We are sensitive to His messages, because so often they are tied-in to the ones we share on the written page.

The deeper we dig into our own day-to-day lives, the more we realize God’s stories are happening all around us—if we just take the time to acknowledge them and explore their depths.
