$ Biblical Storytelling Weekly for Lent (BeADisciple.com)

February 22, 2023 All day

February 22 – April 3, 2023

Biblical Storytelling Weekly for Lent offers an in-depth journey through Matthew’s death and resurrection stories (from chapters 27 and 28), with coaching for powerfully reading, or telling, the stories.

This is designed as a Lenten journey for both Biblical storytellers and those who prefer to read the Scripture in worship. It’s not an introduction to Biblical storytelling, though participants may learn parts of the story by heart, if desired. Delving into Matthew’s story together, learners will explore parts of it that are rarely read in church, experience its challenges, and develop skills for either telling or reading it “with a storytelling spirit!”

In churches that follow the Revised Common Lectionary, 2023 is the year of Matthew, so it’s especially appropriate to be prepared for Easter with Matthew.

The course will begin with introductions on Ash Wednesday. Thereafter, there will be only one weekly discussion board assignment, and one-hour Zoom meetings on Monday afternoons at 1 p.m. and evenings at 6 p.m. You may attend either one each week. Attendance at five of the six is required for a certificate. The series ends with a final Zoom on Monday of Holy Week.
