Description

As communicators in a culture saturated with storylines, we have the
profound opportunity to invite our students into the masterful Story of
God. There are a variety of ways to invite our students into this
Story, but this book discusses and explores how to teach through one of
Jesus' most powerful modes of communication--fictional storytelling.
Rabbinical storytelling (otherwise known as Jewish Agada) embraces the
narrative of Scripture and invites its listeners into understanding and
participation. Our Rabbi, Jesus, employed this mode of communication
through his parables. Approaching the topic as a theologian,
philosopher and artist, Jon invites and teaches how to create
modern-day parables that illuminate the message of
Jesus. These stories do not simply illustrate the message; they are, in
fact, the message. Whether hoping to articulate deep theological
concepts or relevant topics, teaching through the art of fictional
storytelling has the potential to engage and invite our students into
The Story.

In this book:

• You will learn how to create your own fictional stories (modern day parables) that use a realistic setting, engaging characters and a thought provoking plot to communicate a specific topic.

• You are given practical worksheets that offer guidance in developing such stories

• Jon includes a variety of stories he has developed over his years of youth ministry and offers them as a resource to any youth pastor/communicator.
