Biblical storytelling
Jesus was always telling stories. We can try to become more like Jesus by learning to tell some kinds of stories he did. Then no matter where we go, no matter what we do, we will be ready to explain the hopes we have in Jesus. People think that storytelling is for kids, but Jesus himself was the greatest storyteller of all times. Occasionally he told stories to children but most of a time he was telling stories to adults.
Council for Children and Families Inc. can teach you how to be a God’s witness by telling your own Jesus story. We can also teach you how to tell Bible stories by using simple drawings to help you tell Bible story accurately. We also want to share wonderful resource: “Storytelling Playing Cards” produced by All Nations International.
Biblical storytelling is appropriate for any believer, anytime at any age. Let us help you to build you ability and strengthen your confidence to tell Jesus stories no matter where God will take you through out your life.
Presently we have following classes available:
1. You can be his storyteller. Learning and presenting biblical stories with visual aids
Class will teach students how to use simple self-made cards that can help in memorizing and telling bible stories.
2. How I met Jesus. Learning how to tell your story -workshop
Sharing your personal story of salvation is very powerful. The Bible says we overcome our enemy by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.
Workshop will include step by step direction, writing your testimony and practice in sharing it with other participants. It will help you tell others with sincerity, impact, and clarity, what God has done in your life. By learning how to share your testimony with confidence you will help other people get to know what God is like and what He can do.
