To Be Told Story Course
Our stories shape every dimension of our life and relationships.
Knowing the impact of our stories and finding God’s redemptive work within them is vital for emotional, relational, and spiritual health. Our culture often encourages us to focus only on the positive experiences and put the painful ones behind us. Far too often, when the true impact of our stories of wounding and heartache go unaddressed, we find ourselves bound to unhealthy and unfulfilling patterns without hope for change.
To Be Told is far more than the popularized movement to “know your story.” It is an invitation to truth-telling, healing lament, deep soulfulness, and lasting change.
Our story is not ours alone--it is a gift to reveal something about Jesus for others. We believe the more able you are to read and engage your story, the more proficient you will become at reading and joining others in their stories. There is nothing more important than knowing how to walk wisely and tenderly into the heart of a son, daughter, spouse, parent, friend, or stranger. We can help you gain the skills to enter the significant parts of another person’s story in a fruitful way, grow in understanding, and free your heart to love.
Throughout this course you’re invited you to name with greater clarity the contours that easily get ignored, and to ponder the beauty and brokenness of the world that shaped you to become who you are. You will learn:
The structure and power of story
The concepts of faith, hope and love
The redemption of story
Blessing and a new story trajectory
