The difference between telling a scripture and reading a scripture is a difference between a joke book and a comedian telling a joke. Looking in peoples eyes makes the message alive. As a therapist I use Bible stories all the time, especially the healing stories. Biblical storytelling is my ministry, my job, my joy and my delight. A part of this delight is to be a member of this community of faith.
NOBS members are an exciting bunch, loving bunch, talented and committed bunch.
The people are very interesting because they are all from different parts of the country and the world, different backgrounds. One of the first stories I learned was the story of Barthimaeus. I told this story to myself over and over again. At the end I was determined that I would follow Jesus, and I have been doing this ever since. I would encourage people to become a part of the Network, for the Story brings oneness and that is what God is all about.
