God In My Life | Faith Stories & How & Why We Share Them (Tirabassi & Tirabassi)

My Story, My Faith

God in My Life is a panorama of faith stories. Teenagers, Conference Ministers from each United Church of Christ conference, as well as leaders from the six historically under-represented groups, were invited to share how God is active and engaged -- not just in any stage of life, but in adolescence. This initial cluster of stories was enhanced with more from the unique perspectives of many others.

A resource section contains a range of methods and activities designed so that small youth or intergenerational groups, confirmation classes, teen or adult retreats can experience the sharing of faith stories in safe, fun, and non-threatening ways.
