Breakout Session


The Importance of Story in Speaking & Writing

Everybody loves a good story. Stories paint pictures, engage,stimulate and open dialogue and thought. As Christian communicators it’s important to learn to harness the power and craft of telling stories in our writing and speaking. Jesus taught in stories and parables to drive a point home to his listeners, so it makes sense that we too learn to use the power of story to enhance our ministries. This workshop will help you define the stories that match your calling and craft your stories so you are prepared to use them. We will also be looking at the fine tuning of telling our hard stories in a way that honors God and respects others.
