In a time where churches are navigating both everyday challenges and larger crises that arise in communal spaces and grappling with the urgent need to “speak up” in the face of injustice, the need for a robust Crisis Communications Strategy has never been more critical.
Stories and storytelling can be tools for so many facets of ministry. Stories can help people heal from wounds, even trauma. Stories can help with financial stewardship. Stories can help us teach lessons or learn. Stories can be incorporated into the proclamation of the gospel. Stories can help us build new relationships and strengthen old relationships. Stories can give us hope and help us in imparting hope. Stories invite us to be part of something bigger than ourselves.
