S14E09 Telling the Whole Story

In today’s episode, Anna & Jess explore how to tell the ‘big story of the Bible’ to teens and children, especially around Easter. They offer a simple framework to help explain the full story of the Bible (don’t worry, there are only six points!). The Key Tools of Creating Windows, Framing and Unwinding are talked about in examples of how to help your children and teens with understanding the whole story of the Bible.
