Summary:In an attempt to encourage the retelling of Bible stories and holistically engaging Scripture, I developed an approach I call Storymakers. It is an approach to reading and engaging Scripture that is both simple and profound, that pays attention to the text and also one's personal story.

In this article, I explain the foundational elements that underpin Storymakers and give a description of its actual practice through its five movements.
