One of the challenges in sharing stories is simply to begin to tell a story. How do you get started? We like to pose what we call “story prompts” — ideas that can get your juices flowing and help you to think about a moment you’d like to share. Here are some of our favorite story prompts in faith formation contexts:
- tell a story about feeling God’s presence
- tell a story about connection to a community of faith
- tell a story about a favorite scripture verse
- tell a story about a favorite song
- tell a story about feeling disconnected from a faith community
- tell a story about being angry with God
