How do we tell the Story?

StoryMakers recognize the power of the imagination as the entry point to the stories of the Bible and our faith. We believe when kids act out the part of the story they are able to commit to memory the stories of the Bible with ease. They will also be able to identify how God is actively at work to redeem all of creation.

Each Zine provides a way for grown-ups to illuminate the redemptive aspects of each biblical account. Each chapter draws children into the story and points them to God’s redemptive work through an ordinary family. StoryMakers get to act out all the parts, dig into fun facts and engage in a creative activity. Each chapter builds up the story so kids are a BIG picture of the entire story.

 

Grown-ups are Guides.

It is important to have a Gospel lens when approaching the stories of the Old Testament.

Your approach will determine how children interpret each biblical account and understand if God is for or against them. Kids can discover so much more when they activate their imagination, begin to see God as a redeemer, and working “all things for good.”
