This excellent guide to storytelling provides fresh ideas for retelling Bible stories in an accessible way. It contains familiar stories already scripted for you to read but also provides the reader with the tools and confidence to craft their own versions. Just what I needed to bring the Bible alive for all ages not just the children.

Storytelling lies at the heart of the gospel, yet this is so often a neglected or failed mastery. Here is a volume of inspiration, life, truth and fun! There are great resources, truths, technicalities, teaching and oodles of stories contained within. The ‘telling tips’ for me were something of a treasure from Hartman’s many years of experience.  
 Hartman is a frontier pioneer in the essential narrative of God in all his wonder. Engaging, winsome and utterly authentic. Wit, wisdom and creativity abound. You’re in the company of a trusted guide!
