Identify what the Bible actually says before adding creative description.
Retell the story in your own words
Organise the people, events, turning point and lesson of a Bible story without changing the meaning of the Scripture.
STORY STARTERS
Choose a Bible story to plan
Read the passage first. The starter only helps organise your creative retelling.
BUILD YOUR PROJECT
Plan the story carefully
Retell the major events in the correct order.
If you add imagined dialogue or detail, make it clear that it is creative, not quoted Scripture.
Connect your conclusion to the passage rather than forcing a lesson that is not there.
