What is Chronological Bible Storying?
The Bible is the story of God’s love for us written across the pages of history by the very hand of God. The story of salvation through Jesus Christ begins, not in Bethlehem, but “In the beginning,” and continues through each epoch of Biblical history. People who have not grown up in Sunday School especially need to hear the entire narrative of God’s salvation so that they can really grasp the meaning of Jesus’ life and sacrifice for us. Most cultures are oral culture where the primary means of learning everything has always been through oral transmission. Even for a highly literate society like our own, many people learn best from stories. What’s more, since historic events have been God’s primary means of revealing himself to us, the narrative of the Bible will always remain a primary means for us to learn principles and truth. Chronological Bible Storying is simply the practice of telling the major events of the story of God’s salvation from beginning, to the death and resurrection
