Telling a new generation the whole story of the Bible.
With dialoguing narrators, overhead pictures, and mimes — three modes, one story, told all at once.
The Story exists to communicate the grand narrative of the Bible to a new generation — told all at once, so young audiences see themselves inside a much bigger story.
Every scene plays on three channels at once.
Narrators
Four youth narrators trade lines in rapid dialogue, reading the biblical account like a script — not a lecture.
Mimes
Four more youth act out the story in real time, adding motion and humor, and making it easier to follow.
Overhead Pictures
Images change roughly every ten seconds, making concepts that are hard to picture — like the tabernacle — easy to see.
Written for two teenagers. Found by a new generation.
Written by hand more than 40 years ago for two specific teenagers, and first taught to a Sunday school class of about 20.
Recorded to cassette, packaged in a plastic case, and stored away — forgotten in a cellar for decades.
Rediscovered in 2020 and reshaped into four sessions, with dialoguing characters, mimes, and pictures added to reach a new generation.
