So many of us in our community feel unseen, unheard, lonely, disconnected, distraught, and powerless—in our own lives and in the face of various unanswered needs. How can Holy Story Arts! help with and address these needs and heartbreaks for ourselves and everyone affected? ❤️ 💜

Tell your living holy story!! It will help other people too (besides blessing you), whether you tell them directly or they discover your story through other people or places on their journey.

Maybe you have a story, like the man in the picture, of how your family was helped by Jesus and a community of people living into the way of Jesus and the kingdom of God. Or any story you have of transformation or healing in your life, your circumstances, or your community–it will definitely be a blessing to those who hear/experience your story and what you learned!! Give back!! ❤️ 💜

What do I mean by holy stories? They are our everyday, personal, precious stories of God with us, the life transformations we’ve experienced and/or still long for, and the stories we have of the life- and world-changing power of Love.

Telling these stories and lifting them up can sometimes be hard; they feel so private. To speak our holy stories, we need to make ourselves so vulnerable!! But when the time is right and other people are truly listening and ready to receive, our stories can change lives, inspire transformation, and cause us, the storytellers, to feel seen, heard, and connected to God and our communities in amazing new ways we’ve never even imagined.

Do you have a holy story to share? ❤️ 💜

Holy Story Arts! What if we discovered and lifted up our individual and group stories of God with us, the transformations we have experienced and/or still long for, and our stories of the life- and world-changing power of love?

What if we used the arts and everyday conversations to inspire, heal, and share with our families, neighbors, friends, and communities the joy and power of these holy stories? ❤️ 💜

Jesus commissions us to make disciples for God’s Kingdom of love and justice.

In Jerusalem, the whole city was in turmoil, asking, “Who is this?” The crowds were all abuzz, saying, “This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee.” He is the servant of God and God’s kingdom. Let’s follow him!! ❤️ 💜
