One of the greatest delights in being a parish pastor is sharing the stories of the faith. During this week's Vacation Bible School I had the opportunity to tell the story of Fall of Jericho (Joshua 6) and the healing of the Syrian General Naaman (2 Kings 5), with, of course, the help of all the Bible School children.
It seems like the more children are involved in acting out the story in its telling, the better they remember it. Perhaps there is a lesson in there for us adults. The more we are able to live the story, God's story, the more we are able to remember it and the better the story "inhabits" us.
