Amazing skill of storytelling. Telling stories is key to effective Christian communication
There is a remarkable revival in the ancient skill of storytelling. For thousands of years, societies have valued those with the gifts to 'spin a yarn'.
In the West, there are many amateur storytelling groups, and even some professional storytellers. I have sat completely entranced in the storytelling tent of a local summer festival.
Listen to a 30-minute BBC radio program about the art of storytelling (only online till 16 August). Storytelling is a wonderful skill to learn, and hugely valuable for any form of evangelism or Christian communication.
