Great Workshops in Indy!!

I loved my time in Indianapolis last week. It was a packed time with four workshops in three days. 

The first was a six-hour extended workshop for the Center for Congregations. This included a Bible storying workshop and experiential learning stations. If you haven’t connected with the Center for Congregations, you need to. Like no one else I have seen, they are connected ministry leaders from a wide range of traditions to quality resources.

The next three workshops were for the Indiana Conference of the United Methodist Annual Conference and Merge Family Conference. What an energetic group of people!

Recharge is a great regional conference for youth and children's workers. I thoroughly enjoyed presenting two workshops at the conference in January 2015.

Developing Bible Storying Worksheets

One of the most frequent questions I get asked is, “How do you put together the Bible stories you tell?” Well, here are some worksheets that will help you get started developing narratives, questions and a good environment for Bible storying.

NYWC Sacramento Presentation

I just got back from Youth Specialties' National Youth Workers Convention in Sacramento. I loved being a part of the convention and getting to share my passion for teaching the Bible. Click here to download my Art of Bible Storying presentation from the convention. It includes the observations participants shared during the workshop. You might also want to click to download worksheets on developing your own Bible storying.
