Through presentation, contemplative exercises, and a variety of narrative practices, participants will learn the power of personal storytelling for teaching, preaching, personal growth, and spiritual formation. This is a great introduction for pastors, teachers, nonprofit leaders, business professionals, students, and community builders of all kinds. Lunch will be provided.
