Bibliolog Facilitator Course, 4 days, 1st & 2nd and 15th & 16th November

The writers of the Bible knew the power of story to communicate truths, hence humans have been musing over and wrestling with these stories for millennia ever since.

Would you like to become a confident Bible Story Guide? — a facilitator who guides people through the story in such a way that hearers connect with it, respond, remember, and are changed through the experience?

If YES, then join us to learn BIBLIOLOG — bringing a new participatory, imaginative, creative approach to learning from the Bible in a fresh and engaging way, for younger and older students alike.

The message of the Bible comes alive in a new way when your participants step into the lives of the characters in the stories, see things through their eyes, imagine their feelings and thoughts. Even for those who have little prior knowledge of the biblical text, or limited reading ability, this creative and interactive method enables a deep and meaningful engagement with God’s Word.

BIBLIOLOG is…

Inclusive = no prior Bible knowledge is necessary, as only empathy or imagination are needed to respond.

Improvising = encourages fresh insights and dynamic encounters with the stories in God’s Word.

Flexible = this approach is suitable for small and large groups, short sessions to longer workshops, devotions, sermons, bible study, children, youth, or adult groups, and more.

About the Course

Four days over two weekends in November to fully equip you to use this approach in your ministry. With only eight participants per course, you will receive personal coaching from the tutor, increasing your confidence and skill level. We are looking for the remaining two participants for this course to complete to a great group. Could this be you? We hope so.

• Nov 1st & 2nd, 15th & 16th — Saturday and Sunday.
• St. Saviour’s Church, Larkhall, BATH BA1 6QG
