We are people of the story, and we seek to identify and share our stories in nearly everything we do.\n\nDancing with Words provides help for all church leaders -- both clergy and lay -- to explore the history and importance of storytelling in faith development and to acquire basic storytelling skills. You will soon discover ways that storytelling enhances ministry.\n\nStorytelling at its best is an interaction between storyteller and story listener. It is a relationship between the speaker and the listener that may best be described not as a \"telling\" but as sharing -- storysharing. The vehicle is the story, but the experience can be as engaging as an intimate conversation.\n\nIn Dancing with Words you will discover that storytelling can enable hearers to view history, values, culture, faith, life lessons, and other critical elements in ways that may be easily assimilated in memory. Through an understanding of the history of storytelling and of storytellers as keepers of beliefs, traditions, history, and values, you will:\n\nfind new meaning in the stories and the storytellers of the Bible and of the Christian faith\nlearn what makes a good story\ndiscover your own style as a storyteller\nlearn the techniques of effective storytelling\npractice creating stories from your own experience\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0881774073\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0881774073.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Buckley, Ray\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
