Story telling

Another memorable dimension of the weekend was the workshop on story telling led by Simon Airey. One of the most striking aspects of the 90 minutes together (quite part from Simon's wonderful gift in story telling) was the realisation that so many of the folk sharing in that time were very good story tellers too. I believe this is something we can use to great effect in a variety of different ways. In our morning service today, Simon told the story of Isaiah's revelation of God (chapter 6). This way of presenting brings the biblical text to life, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who is still thinking about it tonight.
