Weaving Stories

Derek Hoven

Weaving Stories shares a paradigm for testimony as faith formation in Lutheran settings. The practice begins by helping small groups experiences from their own lives with each other, then moves to connect those personal stories to biblical stories. Individuals use this input to work at weaving the personal and biblical narratives together to share as testimony. This workshop focuses on presenting the paradigm with tips for leading groups through it, as well as the impacts the practice has on storytellers and the congregations who receive those stories.
