The 5th International Christian "Storytelling-in-Ministry" Conference
Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 6:12AM It all started out innocent enough. A group of professional storytellers, who were Christians, were making plans to gather for a weekend. It wasn’t to be anything fancy, they just wanted to work on their craft together, tweak a few stories and "have a conversation about using their storytelling skills in church ministry."
That very first year, the "professionals" were outnumbered by people in Christian ministry. The first year it was 4:1; second year 8:1; third year 12:1; and last year in 2010 almost 16:1. The professional storytellers were surrounded by pastors, missionaries, Sunday school teachers and small group leaders — all of whom came with almost the same request; "Teach us how to better communicate to those living in the 21st century.”
Well, we have to admit that as storytellers, we are a little slow on the uptake. But now we have a clearer understanding of what God wants us to do. He wants us to help churches communicate the Gospel more effectively in the 21st century. We understand that people come to this conference to increase their “communication skills,” not their “performance skills.”
With this in mind, please join us in Georgetown, KY. There you will find storytellers from all over the United States, from all denominations, and brothers and sisters in Christ. You find that Christian storytellers are friendly, personal, and approachable. Their skill level is outstanding and they have trained for decades on how to help others improve their story craftsmanship. The Christian storytellers at our conference have been telling stories professionally for over a decade, some over two decades and a couple approaching three decades of Story Craft.
