I am in the midst of reading "The God hungry Imagination; The art of Storytelling for the Postmodern Youth ministry" by Sarah Arthur. Here is a quote that I want to share with you.
"Beyond reclaiming and telling the Great Story, the church must, as Robert Jensen has said, be the story. The church is the narratable world we're inviting youth into; it's both both narrator and homeland. Gregory Wolfe writes:
If there is an imaginative challenge for our time, it is to hear and transmit the still small voice of divine authority amid the cacophony of individualism and power politics, and to show that the astonishment that we feel in the presence of that voice will lead not toward oppression, but toward true community."
If this is true, what examples in our local churches are we seeing this played out?
