If you've ever found it difficult to share your story or have been uncomfortable navigating conversations about faith, you're not alone. Tell It Well helps you to discover what your story is and how to use it to find common ground with others. Through the devotional and reflective nature of Tell It Well, you will be equipped to engage in conversations about faith with grace, confidence, authenticity. Tell It Well is split into three sections, Discover Your Story, Own Your Story and Share Your Story. Each section walks you through a different portion of the process from identifying your story to sharing it. Discover Your Story focuses on uncovering what 'your story' means and why it is an important piece to understanding your value, purpose, relationship with God and ability to create open and honest conversations about faith and religion. Own Your Story is full of practical steps, advice and examples of how to form your story. You will be challenged to look deeper and wider at your circumstances to find all the special ways God has created and called you. Share Your Story is where we discuss how your story plays into the bigger picture of spiritual dialogue in our culture. We'll dive into questions like; What does it mean to find common ground without wavering in your convictions? How can you start a conversation about faith that is based on common ground and understanding? And, How can we overcome negative stereotypes through our personal stories? Each chapter has a set of reflection questions at the end, which makes Tell It Well a great resource for group discussion. This book is written for anyone that wants to know how their experiences play into God's larger story.
