"We're not here for brand management. We're not here to spend your story into a better tale than it is," she says. "I talked to them about being honest, which is not me telling everybody everything you know." She also tells them the specific Bible verse, which is Psalm 139 16: "Your eyes saw my unformed substance in your book were written every one of them".
Curtis and Nancy French explore the power of storytelling in everyday life. Nancy, a professional storyteller and New York Times best-selling author, urges listeners to “read” the stories of their own lives – in order to see how the ultimate Author of their stories (God) has shaped their destinies. Curtis and Nancy also encourage people to inhabit other peoples’ stories and to interview family members, such as parents, to more clearly see the context of their “origin stories.”
