What Happened to the Art of Storytelling?

The art of storytelling used to take place at family meals and other gatherings. In today’s society, however, family meals occur less often or not at all. How sad. The stories about our family heritage, our history and our God fade away.

Moses had the answer for busy families wandering through the wilderness of life.

Listen, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD alone. And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. (Deuteronomy 6:4-7 NLT)

I don’t want to neglect communicating the most important stories of my life to my children and grandchildren. They cannot be found on television or the internet. They exist only in my heart.

Join me in reviving the art of storytelling in our society.

Sharing the journey with you,
