I’m sold on Bible Storying. Not so much because of the research on orality (though it is compelling), but because it resonates in my own experience of encountering the scriptures. When I read the scriptures as a story, God’s Sacred Story, I connect on a level that has never been reached by argument or logic.
I am storying at a home Bible study that I lead on Wednesday nights. We started with Creation and are about to get into the New Testament. This week we are taking a bit of a break by celebrating how far we’ve come. I’m also giving them a test on the stories we’ve covered thus far.
How well do you know God’s Sacred Story? Click here and see if you know the story and where it is located. For each picture, the students have to tell me: 1) Name of Story. 2) Location of Story (book only). 3) Recite Memory Verse Associated with the Story.
