An extremely practical workshop designed to de-mystify the art of storytelling and offer plenty of guidance on how to tell really good stories and maximise their effect. Led by Julie Grove, former head of AREIAC (Association of RE Inspectors, Advisers and Consultants) and author of a number of books on the use of story, the workshop explores the importance of religious stories and looks at how they can develop a deeper level of religious understanding. On a more practical level, the workshop covers storytelling techniques like: using visual beginnings and ends to religious stories, carefully selecting your language and, above all, the importance of telling, not reading, stories.
