StorytellingWhat is Biblical Storytelling?
Generations before the narratives of the Bible were written, they were part of an oral tradition shared in faith communities. Today’s biblical storytelling recaptures the heart of the early church by performing bible narratives to inform and teach about God’s Word. However, unlike secular storytelling, sacred storytelling recognizes the transformative power of God’s word to heal and deliver. Modern biblical storytelling also crosses the generational digital divide, and can make ample use of technology to communicate ancient truths. Margaret-Ann is available to perform the following biblical texts for your church, during your worship service, retreat, coffee shop, Bible Study, or conference. Many churches employ storytelling instead of reading scripture during their worship services. >Joseph and his brothers (Genesis 37) >The Birth of Moses (Exodus 2) >The Book of Ruth >The Fiery Furnace (Daniel 3) >Daniel in the Lions' Den (Daniel 6) >The Temptation of Jesus (Matthew 4 or Luke 4) >The Triumphal Entry Into Jerusalem (Mark 11 or Matthew 21) >The Anointing of Jesus (Mark 14:1-11) >The Last Supper (Mark 14:12-26) >Zechariah’s Song (Luke 1) >Mary and Elizabeth (Luke 1) >The Birth of Jesus (Luke 2) >The Genealogy of Jesus (Luke 3) >Jesus Calls the Disciples (Luke 5) >Jesus Heals the Woman With the Issue of Blood and Raises the Dead Girl (Luke 8) >The Good Samaritan (Luke 10) >Mary and Martha (Luke 10) >The "Lost" Parables (Luke 15) >The Persistent Widow (Luke 18) >The Road to Emmaus (Luke 24) >The Woman at the Well (John 4) |
